Can you share any examples/use-cases? I'm not doubting you, I'm just very, very curious.
In 2011 a customer I worked with was using Windows 95 still in a test bed for their legacy equipment. The test software they had was written for it, and it still worked, so no need to go through the massive pain of updating. But even that was 12 years ago and we expected it to fall apart any day...
A friend of mine still helps out a number of local businesses running their old MS-DOS Point Of Sales terminal software, as well as old high end printing hardware at a print shop. It works, and replacements aren't worth the CapEx as they're doing just fine. Migration has real costs, like losing the customer database for a mechanic's garage or buying a new 6 digit printer for the print shop.
