It'd be interesting, although the personal support floppies should be checked for privacy I guess.

All hail the Great Capacitor Brand Finder

Cool. Speaking of vintage software, I wonder if they also got a copy of STSOrbit Plus over there.
That satellite tracker was running on MIR space station aeons ago.

It was not t meant seriously... 😀

However I wonder why they never got rid of those. I figure they must be obsolete even there by now. I guess they have replaced all laptops in the meantime.

No roadside trash collection. Everything you want thrown out has to be loaded into a Cygnus, Progress, or HTV module to be burned up on reentry.

It's all down to military tactics - when the Daleks invade Earth, they'll first invade the space stations, and so if we humans keep only obsolete hardware on the space stations then the evil ol' Daleks will think we're very backward technically, and so they'll fatally underestimate our military capabilities.

Although maybe we should put the latest PCs on the space stations, as when the Daleks see that we're using Windows 10 then they'll probably laugh themselves to death!
