Who said anything about "safety critical"?
Maybe we should get the surgeons in to give us IT advice, eh?
Nice to see so many judgements being made in the absence of any knowledge of the situation. These computers are used to enter theatre data (operation, swabs & instruments used etc) and looking at blood results/XRays for inpatients between cases.
The lack of them will certainly impair the smooth running of the theatre, but no-one has yet died because the computer in the corner of theatre was running windoze - last time I checked, humans could acquire virii from computers
Biting the hand that feeds IT
