Linux and X Window

Look ma! No crutches! No training wheels!

Of course, Linux offers desktops of staggering complexity, but I prefer
the spartan and the minimalistic. Here we see only three virtual
terminals, and using these I can be much more productive than any
GUI jockey in the world.

Actually, this image represents only 1/4 of the total desktop real
estate. Using X Window one can define areas up to 16x what is seen
here, but I do not require such vastness.

Try that with Micro$oft Windoze!

My brain is thoroughly racked and I don't have time to do the research
at the moment, so what is it? I know several aircraft it isn't.

4 seat cockpit with cup holders?
I somehow doubt either of those two "C's" are likely candidates.
Hmmmm......

Well, it was the latest version of the Comet, in terms of a civil airliner
guise.

Shades of "Fate is the Hunter"



I'm surprised it doesn't have ash trays.

HI Peter,

Dave's on track with this one, it's a Comet 4 cockpit, based at the de
Havilland Museum.

Comment about the Caravell is interesting, as according to Wikipedia: "Sud's
design licensed several fuselage features from de Havilland, a company Sud
had dealings with for several earlier designs. The nose area and cockpit
layout were both taken directly from the de Havilland Comet". Plus, of
course, they both used Rolls Royce Avon engines.
