Just this year, we pulled our Pentium Pro box off our museum shelf and
did a fresh install of NT4 for a faculty member and their scientific
instrument.

Being a photographer, I know there is a real market for this. Many
high-end scanners will only work with older Macintosh or Windows systems. I have a scanner
that originally cost $10,000, and the only software for it runs on Windows XP (thankfully
I can use Parallels Desktop to run XP and use it). Other, even more expensive scanners
require even older software that requires physical systems. I also have some pretty
high-end Macintosh A/V HW & SW that won?t run on newer systems.
I?m sure there is plenty of lab type equipment in this category as well.
