Default Paper charts are for Wannabees

I bought a Mac laptop a year ago. It's the one I take with me when I
travel. My HP laptop just sits on the desk.

Still, for serious database servers and fast logging systems, I prefer
Sun Microsystems and Solaris. It has always worked.

Real sailors use nothing but digital charts. It is folish even to have

paper
charts as backup. What if they get washed overboard for instance, or

eaten
by the ships rat. No it is much safer to have a redundant system of

digital
charts.


What Operating System do real sailors use to run their navigation S/W on?
