one running some test equipment for which there are no drivers for later versions of Windows.
Therein, lies a big problem. There are many computers running custom or proprietary soft ware that hasnt been upgraded to run on newer versions of Windows. If the software has been upgraded,it is ridiculously expensive and wont import the data from older versions.
