i think thats typical in industrial settings. upgrading the os takes down production, introduces new issues, and doesn't add anything. one of those if it aint broke dont fix it things.
I can no longer sit back and allow communist infiltration, communist indoctrination, communist subversion, and the international communist conspiracy to sap and impurify all of our precious bodily fluids.

Heh, some of the computers that run the controllers at the plant where I work run Win 2K, but they aren't network connected (at least, they don't appear to be and I should hope not!)

This seems like a lot of ado over nothing to me. I still occasionally use XP as a second OS for some old games. I have just a router firewall and a browser script blocker (Noscript), and haven't even gotten the existing security updates for it in many years. It's not like XP will suddenly stop working when they drop support.
