I still work on 98se machines. I expect to see XP machines for a long time yet. If the machine is in good nick, there is little point in upgrading unless you get something that needs the upgrade. The oldest machine I serviced last week was a Dell Precision 386. The date on the inside of the machine is 22nd March 1991 and has a wapping 200mb drive. It runs WFW 3.11 I replaced the floppy, added an isa network card and it now can be accessed from the network so that the customer can archive his deceased wife's translations of family diaries.

It's nice to go old school every now and then!
