Water makes up more than 70 percent of the earth's surface and is used
to transport nearly 90 percent of all goods. These goods and passengers
could never reach their destination punctually and safely without navigation
systems. That's why most cruise liners rely on SAM Electronics products,
powered by the QNX(R) realtime operating system (RTOS).
