The US Navy at one point was switching from Unix to
Windows. They had
major problems with this on the USS Yorktown, and had to tow it back to
port. I don't know whether they've completed the switch.
This sounds untrue at best. There are several reasons but among them,
no captain worth his salt is going to let his boat be towed back to
dock unless all the engines have disappeared.

A real patriot is the fellow who gets a parking ticket and rejoices
that the system works.
