NASA upgrades ISS laptops for crew operations

NASA is upgrading the ISS crew’s old laptops and network gear, starting with servers before the new machines get handed over to the astronauts.

Those old ISS laptops have had a heroic run, but I’m mostly relieved they’re doing the backend/network bits first — nothing like shiny new machines talking to ancient servers and turning into a support circus. HP ZBooks are solid, but I bet half the “upgrade” work is just making sure all the weird legacy tools still behave.
