Sellam was probably referring to the 1998 incident in which the
Aegis-missile cruiser USS Yorktown was left dead in the water for
several hours when the ships propulsion system was shutdown by a
database overflow in Windows NT. The crash was caused by a
divide-by-zero error.

Ya mean that
NT sunk our battleships???
Thankfully, no. They've all been relegated to floating museums.
All the aircraft carriers, subs, and battleships scattered along all the
coasts as museums/tourist attractions would make quite a fleet all on
their own! Certainly you would never see anything like a battleship
ever again if the existing ones were scrapped.
