Is that really true, you don't use 'Nixes? Would that mean you use Windows in critical life-or-death situations? If that's true, I think that scares me more than anything else I've ever heard about the military before. I can see how people would use Windows in the home or business networks (myself included) but when you're dealing with life and death, I don't see how it's possible. I'd have thought the ability to scrutinize the source code and fix bugs in a timely manner would be a priority, hence free and open software.
