Linux on Virgin Aeroplanes

Written by fx on March 29, 2008 – 2:35 pm

Source: FlickrVirgin America uses Linux to entertain its passengers whilst in-flight. Slashdot reports –

“CrunchGear has an interesting interview of the Director of Inflight Entertainment for the airline Virgin America discusses their adoption of Linux for the passenger’s seat back computers. ‘The ability to compose a music-video playlist is pretty cool and on the horizon. The READ section is also awesome in that it takes what is typically a bunch of wasted trees (excess newspapers, periodicals) and allows us to be more environmentally friendly and timely with things like news/event info/sports/entertainment etc.’”
