Have you looked at Linux yet? :-)


We run without any operating system.  Embedded application.  That's what it
takes to get certified.

The subject line really struck a chord with me.  The whole NASA thing just
makes me mad.  Burt Rutan was right when he said that public funding almost
never results in commercially viable products.

Do you think a class action law suit in favor of the tax payers against 
William's and Eclipse Aviation to recover the 100 million would succeed?
I don't think we can sue NASA.
