I recently replaced a failed stick of ram in a NT 4.0 machine in a server farm.

it’s been plugging away with out issues all these years. Not exactly sure what they use it for, I’m there to fix hardware and they don’t like to get in to details about what the machine does.

You illustrate the point exactly. I still work with some machines that run Solaris 1.1.1 even. My job is not to tell the customer that their versions are not the newest. It is to fix the problem and get them running again.

Don't see the need a wireless fridge or microwave either.

NT was reliable because MS hired real OS developers from DEC to build it.
