Wouldn't you think that we would want our astronauts to have top of the line, cutting edge technology to work with? I just think they should have to best resources to help their research in space. Now with that though, the problem lies with the technology. Is it too new and foreign to the astronauts that they wouldn't be able to fix it if it breaks? I understand how they like the reliability of the old machines, but it just seems like we should send them up there with only the best technologies as to optimize production. Plus, the iPad could be a pretty nice space/weight saver.
