Default Looking for photo of...

Some years ago someone posted a photo of a simulator - don't know which, it might have been a CRJ or an Embraer - but all its EFIS displays were showing the Microsoft startup screen.

I want to win a bet that the simulators are running Windows, and can't find a way to prove it.

It could have been an FTD or a sim though.

Anyone recall that one? Can't seem to find a pic on Google.

I found the 777 with the blue screen's of death... Blue Screen of Death - The Four Questions
I know this isn't what you were looking for, but I'll keep looking for the startup screen one. Don't recall ever seeing that one.

The photo you saw must have been photoshopped to be funny. There are no large simulators that run off Microsoft programs. You lost your bet, sorry.
