We've had the laptops since 91 now, they're great. We are not swapping them out with something we're calling the Pilot Access Terminal, PAT. It has not only the performance features (which are really impressive and allow us a lot more fine tuning and pilot control than other systems) but also a maintenance function where you point and click on the cockpit display and enter possible problems directly for direct download (soon to be paperless maint log), and some have the aviation weather access, full access to weather maps etc in real time. That's experimental, but hope to see it fleetwide at some point.
