| > Airport staff need to be able to support them. I know of a very small airport where what is displayed over the HDMI part is essentially Firefox at fullscreen with powersaving disabled so the screen does not blank. Some of them are Intel NUC, some of them are Raspberry Pi with HSM in a box. These devices basically "boot to Firefox" with relevant credentials read off internal TPM/HSM. Those among airport staff who do not know how to use a computer at all can get them working by just plugging them in. > Most people know how to use a windows computer. They know enough to open a browser. > Most IT desktop support knows how to use and manage windows. They know how to cope with Windows, at best. > Finding someone who knows a BSD is not easy. BSD is everywhere and in far more places than Windows, like almost every car sold after 2014. But you never ever see BSD because it's already-working with nothing for the end customer to do. |
