A place I worked at untill the 1999 used an old XT to run software to check
the serial ports of temperature controllers. Generally if the device does
not change, companies tend to use the same old equipment for QC. 
The last place I was at used a pair of them for test and data logging 
of product and another to control ovens used to bake out parts.  They 
are still in service.
