Gives a whole new meaning to "the blue screen of death", doesn't it? ;-)

I've been wondering...
What underlying OS do the various glass panels (Avidyne, Garmin, etc.)
use? It might actually make me think twice about buying a particular
system if I knew that (for example) it was Windows underneath.
The MX-20 runs plain vanilla Windows NT 4.0. I don't know why anyone except
software bigots would have a problem with that. There have been no known
problems with the OS in this application.
The Garmin G-1000 runs a proprietary OS.
