US Defense last I checked. Worked off a Pegasus Platform Closed system Rest of world works off of Intel platform open system (all made in Taiwan ) Will the Banker's Bat-Shit fly... We'll see

Like I've said, I need a damned Rosetta Stone Cashclan to have even a remote chance of deciphering your sh*t.

So, what is the disadvantage of the 'Pegasus Platform'?

Is a 'closed system' safer from hacking than an 'open system'?
It would be counterintuitive to claim the opposite, wouldn't it?

Would you trade our currently deployed military hardware and software for any other country's? Which and why?

How about DARPA? Any other country have anything to compare with what they've furnished the US Military?

Who do you think will deploy the first combat lasers and rail guns on their ships and planes.

What I get from most of your posts is that you're 'betting on the other guy', the other countries. I'll take that bet!
