Personally I'm looking forward to the day when the Wavy Navy deploys it's
latest steam powered attack frigate HMS Chair, complete with Windows for
Bathtubs v5. That's the one where you have to hard reboot after giving
any kind of order to the system.
"You seem to be trying to fire a missile, do you require some assistance?"
Click on NO and the system freezes and requires a matelot to turn it off
and back on again. Deep joy!
