This petition is now closed, as its deadline has passed.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to investigate why Microsoft Windows software is being used in mission-critical defence applications, namely on warships and submarines. More details
Submitted by John Goodwin – Deadline to sign up by: 13 March 2008 – Signatures: 28
More details from petition creator
Type 45 destroyers will allegedly be using Windows 2000 software, as well as submarines. I just cannot believe that this unreliable OS will be used in a defence capability. Truly worrying - please sign the petition if you're as concerned as I am.
Regards
John Goodwin
