think about it the backbone of our airlines were designed in the 60's and 70's with the 737 designed in 1965 the 747 designed in 1963, the 767 designed in 1970, the 777 was designed in 1988 basicly our airfleet was all designed before the windows pc. thats why there arent Pc's in there ![]() I dont think people realize how old the fleet of jets are in the united states, the good news is boeing got certified for its boeing 787 dreamliner wich after many delays and 6 years behind on its 827 orders will be starting delivery in japan this month ![]() ![]() |

Can you suggest a small PC which has a guaranteed 10-20 years supported lifetime (i.e. you would be able to get spare parts in 10-20 years, and would still be compatible with whatever commercially supported software will be out there in that time) and has no electromagnetic radiation whatsoever?

Any non-builtin device is by definition constantly upgraded whenever taken out of the cockpit and another or the same one with the same purpose is brought in again.
Continuous upgrades with no downtime and retesting for replacing built-in devices. :-) Last edited by robvarga; 08-25-2011 at 04:01 AM. |

Sure you could. But did you note the features about the iPad they thought were important for this specific use? Maybe an extra $249 wasn't that big a deal for reliability, instant on/fast restart, and a ready made app designed specifically for the device.
