Virgin America Uses Linux to Entertain Inflight

anomalous cohort writes "CrunchGear has an interesting interview with the Director of Inflight Entertainment for the airline Virgin America, who 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.'"

Re:male or female?

[ScrewMaster]

Some suicide bombers may be in for a big surprised when they get to heaven.

True, and even if they do happen to be the right sex, there's no guarantee they'll actually be attractive. I mean, who wants to spend eternity shagging a whale? There's a reason some people never get laid.

In any event, the promise of virgin sex seems to work well on male suicide bombers ... what I want to know is, what do they promise the female ones?

Inquiring minds want to know.
