I’m using a Win7 machine at work, because I have to support a system that saw it’s last update in 2014. There is actually a Win10 compatible version of this software, but it only supports maybe a third of the chips of the original software, and sadly the ones we use are not among those.
And it can get worse. I’ve got an oscilloscope that “runs” under a heavily modified version of Win98…
Reminds me of a recording studio I used to work at which had an MS-DOS machine long after Windows XP came out because it was what we printed cassette labels on. With a dot matrix printer.

Why you shouldn’t develop production grade software for Windows part 25.
Just to be the devil’s advocate here, you can make the same mistake with embedded Linux.
Any old software should not be in the network.
