   I know that the electronics used in many advanced military
projects are rather outdated, and heard the same about the 
shuttle's computers. Somebody must know the details ! E.g. 
which (micro- ?) processors are being used, which/how much memory,
clockspeed etc. ?  And, which language was used to write the software
for them ? I hope that this all is not CLASSIFIED info...
