It's a different problem when you have the data trasmitter right next to the sat receiver. When the transmitter is on, the front end of the receiver will be overloaded even though the signal is from a different band. Look up "desense" with google for a better explaination.
It's that it was leaked. These documents have always existed, under very tight security and controls. Either the document was deliberately leaked for some political purpose, or there is a serious security problem. My guess is that it was deliberately leaked for sabre rattling effect and to feel the public's pulse on the subject.

If anything,the embedded Linux hysteria has died down quite a bit. Linux has it's share of problems in the embedded marketplace. Large memory footprint, filesystems that need time to shutdown, interrupt latency to name a few. I work in the single board computer industry and we've seen a sharp decline in the requests for embedded linux support over the last year.
So you took hard-earned money from the students and you're so clueless you have to come to slashdot to find out how to spend it? I am outraged that fools like you are entrusted with the education of students.

Yeah, and you're another moron that broke it.
Sounds like you're a moron and you broke it.
I don't have a problem with it. If you need an automotive analogy, compare MIPS to horsepower and it makes more sense.
a company has to spend $20 to attach it to all the equipment, configure it and turn it on."
Sorry, but my bogosity meter is banging against the peg on this one. Anybody have any real figures on this?
Taco should have stole a better dictionary
RMS vs. Eric Raymond.
I'd like to see that.
Just read "Techniques of Program Structure and Design"

An absolute waste of their time. For the amount it would cost to build one Saturn V they could build thousands of cruise missiles.
I'd love to see acutual engineering documents and code for stuff like the Saturn V, the lunar module and the ground control computers
Michigan University Medical Program, ran on Dec computers to control and track lab tests in hospitals.

Get your perl monkeys busy and do a decent on-line payment system, not that cheesy-ass PayPal thing.
Enough said.
And you don't know much about corporate greed and politics if you think that your statement and his are mutually exclusive.
I enlisted in 1970 and the drill sargents called us "The New Pussy Army". I wonder what they're called now?
Jon Katz?
It would be evil if they held a gun to your head and told you to do it. Mod the parent down for trollbait.
These people spent 7,000,000 lbs sterling to build some sort of a Disney world-of-the-future demo. I'm just glad it wasn't my money.
