We have another computer that runs a wide format printer. The software for it is mega bucks. Once again the upgrade path is many thousands of dollars.
We have one old computer running Windows 2000. All it does is run a 15 year old 1 TB RAID. It still sits there working just fine.

I'm getting images from a Terminator movie reading about these computers.
I am on a XP machine now. I will run it until it no longer runs. If someone hacks my computer, they can have my spreadsheets and like documents. Everything of importance is not on the computer.
