The self-service checkout things at ASDA and Tesco do indeed run
Windows, of the XP variety I believe.  Certainly I remember when Tesco
Extra in Pool (near Camborne) first had them installed they seemed to
have one or two problems - the whole lot seemed to be on a continual
restart cycle, which was quite amusing.

I have seen plenty of Windows based 'cash points', and the 'information
points' throughout Plymouth are Windows based too... with the usual
consequences.

Grant.
