Holy crap. Why is an aerospace company still using
such an old-assed
computer? Anyway, I may be able to help them.
What's wrong with old-arsed computer anyway???
BTW, I read somewhere that the space shuttle actually used core memory,
apparently due to the bad resistance towards radiation in older IC memory.
Could anyone confirm whether this still holds true?
