Yep,

That's the same Deepwater Pathfinder that made the center fold of Fortune a few months ago.

A thing of beauty....

I saw the CNN/Fortune show on Conoco's Deepwater Pathfinder too. A beautiful ship at that, and fully computerized. Lots of space on the bridge for the Captain to pace around. If memory serves, he said they can stay within a metre or so of the target hole, and the readout on the screen showed they were currently within 0.1 metres.
