Penguins in Space!
NASA has decided that the time has come to replace Windows with Debian Linux on the over 140 laptops on board the International Space Station. They had been running XP, but now that it has reached end-of-life, NASA opted for Linux because, according to one official, "we needed an operating system that was stable and reliable – one that would give us in-house control. So if we needed to patch, adjust or adapt, we could."

The news media is even worse than you think:

NASA (and the other space agencies) have some pretty smart software engineers on staff. I think they are better off supporting the software they ran themselves than paying large amounts to a for-profit corporation. I'm actually surprised that those computers were running Windows in the first place. I'm not sure I would trust that system to keep on trucking on the harsh environment of space.

I would assume it was done because of some deal with Microsoft after the various hearing in Congress. I seem to recall Pacific Bell had issues with Microsaft over prices and didn't buy one of the major versions of Windows (they skipped one, probably Windows 2000 or Me)

From other the article this guy does not seem to be right in the head. Apparently he would put fetus in plastic containers and bags. I really think this trial goes beyond abortion, rather this looks a trial for just one really sick person.
