Look, we have to take a small departure from what would be considered normal in a website like this. Obviously hackers won't go to save astrounauts. However, that's the way this battle has to be presented to make it work. HAL's operating system must be compatible with other computers if he's able to communicate with other astronauts on earth. In the age of instant communication, Internet communication should still be VERY FAST. If you don't like my battle fine, but please don't clog up my blogspace with this when I'm struggling to get votes AS IT IS.
