HN users is not the target audience. It is not intended to be dissected and pulled apart for analysis and profit. Sometimes things are because they were.

Well, sure, "not intended" but that's what happens.

It's OK though. It's refreshing to see stuff like this. I admire that someone will still provide support for such old systems even if folks like me don't understand why.

There's some very compelling positives to something that can keep running for so long and which doesn't "phone home" to a corporate master because "its home" is where it is installed.
