That pretty much mirrors my experience over there - everything I saw ran
some sort of Linux - from desktop machines in offices to production line
process controllers in factories. I also saw crashed Windows machines -
at the airport (American Airlines' check-in desk had four Windows boxes
which had crashed), and several crashed, NT-based ATMs.
