Changing a system like that is often a major headache and a huge risk . I've been through that airport twice since 2008.. No problems. Its probably the biggest airport I've ever seen. The runway lineups are like looking at one of our highway traffic jams on a Monday morning.

ummm... That's not outdated; Windows 95 is reliable.

Why change to an unstable platform?

Keep thinking like that, and you'll be just fine! (To Al.)

Also, it's possible that an order system is harder to hack, which would be a good thing.
