[BC] Automation systems

[Tom]

On shipboard?  I have it from a just-retired chief - retired off the USS 
Kittyhawk - that NO shipboard system is allowed to have XP installed. 

Chief Robin P. Brooks, USN (ret).

Ashore, maybe - since anyone with a two-bit map can find the shore 
installations; afloat, I'd bet not.
