Hacker News represents only a pretty small fraction of the IT world. There are many, many companies out there doing things Hacker News never heard of because it's not related to web or startups. What I do at my day job would be considered legacy tech here on HN but my company is a multi million dollar profitable business working in the B2B sector.

Microsoft Windows is still dominant in the business world because the often external IT knows how to work on it and most of the time it just works.
