I used to work for a manufacturers that had industrial equipment that was 15 years old. We had 15 year old PCs to talk to it. That was about 20 years ago. From what I hear, they’re using the same equipment, and same PCs.
- WWLink 6y ago35 years means they must be using 286s to run that stuff. On the plus side, nothing requires fans, the motherboards are extremely simple (albeit a mess of logic chips), and your biggest worry is probably the power supply. Right? I dunno. I could easily see taking decently made hardware to the 20 year mark.
