A lot of public infrastructure in the US (powerplants, waste management, etc.) runs off XP or older.
Not as prevalent these days, but a lot of EMR/EHR was built on XP. Some of those companies went out of business and the clinics using the software never upgraded because they couldn't get the data out into another system.
it was always possible to do... just not at the price they were willing to pay.
