MS is extending extending free Windows 7 security updates to voting systems so that the US can get trough 2020 elections.
There is still Itanium hardware running on Windows Server 2008 R2 (Same Kernel as Win 7) and it's supported until at least 2025.
Safety critical and big enterprise software contracts are often written to keep the system running and updated with minimal changes and cost "Until the iron gets tired".
