Greetings from Cambridge, UK!
On the Delta flight over I noticed the entertainment system had Tux on it
during boot up. I saw enough of the startup to it's a RedHat based system
using "red boot" which is RHEL4 I think.
The GUI is a custom one that needs some more polish (clunky touch screen
fubar'ed into a non-English mode and there was no route back other than
rebooting my display system.).
Pictures of a boot screen were taken while taxiing to runway. Can't post
from here without size edits but will later for those interested.
