If its medical industry those machines are offline. Same thing with CNC machines still running windows 98 in some workshop. Hell we still use some windows XP laptops here with the networking disabled because places are still running fire alarm panels from the 80s/90s and using serial comms via Virtual Machine is finicky as fuck on a modern laptop.
