NASA still uses it (notice the taskbar)

Taken from the STS-127 mission live feed

dav3 · 07-15-2009, 08:20 PM

lol nice

mmcfadden · 07-15-2009, 08:20 PM

great... can NASA get my computer running right now?

CunningStunt · 07-15-2009, 08:21 PM

What game are they playing there, Galaga?

Aquarius · 07-15-2009, 08:25 PM

I really like XP, I'm on vista now though.

qxm · 07-15-2009, 08:34 PM

I am on XP... I might move to 7 when it comes out.... I am not even going to comment on vista

TidalWave · 07-15-2009, 08:37 PM

NASA still uses computers from the 70's... so nothing amazing there.

stickyfingerz · 07-15-2009, 08:39 PM

Ill stick with Vista, and will have 7 running within a month when I get some time to swap this one out, or goto dual boot.

TinyXP FTW!

crockett · 07-15-2009, 09:04 PM

If you want to hear something funny.. The computers on the shuttle are very old and simple, like 80's and early 90's. The astronauts bring lap tops along to plug in and help run the ship.

Space stuff is like banks, they are always 10 years behind on their systems.

This is the computer system it uses.. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_AP-101

maybe they have some other kind of xp, i would never get into the the ship guided and controled by xp. Would you?

SGS · 07-16-2009, 01:17 AM

Never ever had a problem with XP and no plans to change any time soon.

seeandsee · 07-16-2009, 05:03 AM

XP is real gold

JeffCliff · 07-16-2009, 05:08 AM

I bought a new computer and it has vista as its OS. After only a few weeks I really miss XP and may even consider uninstalling Vista! If you have XP, words of advice... Stick with it!

HorseShit · 07-16-2009, 05:18 AM

martinsc · 07-16-2009, 05:21 AM

yeah, xp rocks, but 7 is way better

Want proof?

XP is a best OS so far

Chosen · 07-16-2009, 05:54 AM

XP is a nice OS, haven't tried MacOS yet though...

mOrrI · 07-16-2009, 05:56 AM

tranza · 07-16-2009, 06:03 AM

Well, just getting ready to turn back to the old and good XP.

peedy · 07-16-2009, 02:06 PM

Banks, Government and nearly all Fortune 500 companies are probably 3-5 years behind as far as tech goes. They do this on purpose because they require the upmost stability and reliability.

What the fuck happened to your head, boy? Burn and Dodge, or meth?

RichCashOmar · 07-16-2009, 05:57 PM

hehe probably a whole bureaucratic deal for them to go with a different OS

CI-Andrew · 07-18-2009, 07:53 AM

I pre-ordered Windows 7 yesterday. Lookin forward to that, but Vista has been fine for me

Manowar · 07-18-2009, 11:15 AM

maybe they are running it on a thinkpad

Thomas1007 · 07-18-2009, 11:47 AM

Slutboat · 07-18-2009, 12:07 PM

As one of the few people using XP and Mac side by side on a daily basis ( I do like the navigation aspects of windows) I can tell you a little bit about what I went through last night:

I bought a new webcam from target and plugged it in to my XP machine expecting it to boot right up - instead I spend the next three hours trying to update "service pack" and all these other updates to the OS and all this crap even before I could install the service pack - these downloads put thousands of dll files on my machine and I was forced to restart 3 or 4 times and was unable to work during all this - it was a total nightmare.

The mac os is so vastly superior to windows is astonishing anyone still uses microsoft crap.

fatfoo · 07-18-2009, 12:50 PM

That's good to know.

CaptainHowdy · 07-18-2009, 12:59 PM

Very nice, hehehehe!

paymeback · 07-18-2009, 02:06 PM

Installed windows 7 few days ago, wont be going back to XP
