What's the connection?  BOTH airlines (as well as many more) run their
reservation systems on HP e3000 computers using IMAGE databases for
industrial-strength OLTP :-)

Dave Evans and his colleagues at Open Skies developed the original software.
For further details, see http://www.adager.com/HP3000servers.html and scroll
halfway down to "HP e3000 Business Servers take off in the airline industry".

It's too bad that Carly flies HP's jet, because she misses out on a lot of
good HP e3000 material as it applies to airlines :-)


Enjoy,
