[GLLUG] The Navy’s newest warship is powered by Linux

[Omalley_s]

I thought the navy switched to linux after NT left them stranded dead in the water a number of years ago.

The american healthcare website is open source supposedly but not the deep layers where they are having issues. Businessweek just wrote an article supporting open source for that and rally all government software. It caught me offguard. Maybe it is the same guy that I heard on npr the other day too talking about the same thing.
