Computer Crash At 30 Thousands Feet
« on: December 13, 2005, 02:59:31 AM »
I got a bad experience with Boeing 747 entertainment system of a major airlines, created by Rockwell Collins.

After several minutes playing games, the computer crashed and had to be re-booted. The Rockwell Collins logo appear, then ..... Microsoft MS-DOS Copyright Notice.

Does the airline use old, unreliable DOS on their entertainment system?
How often they have to re-boot the system during the flight?

What happen if the airlines use similar computer and OS as the main computer of the airplane?
