In today's morning West (yes apparently there will be an afternoon one too) there was a story about a Marine who runs a drone aircraft which he normally carries in a backpack.

Deploying the drone takes about 10 minutes all up. He said the step which takes the longest is starting Windows on the laptop, which controls it..

I can imagine the drone sending back valuable images of enemy positions, then "Oh dear, a BSOD"... Puts some meaning into "BSOD", eh?
