I guess you're unaware of the gargantuan number of legacy manufacturing plants littered all over the globe that are trying to retrofit current tech over 40+ year old tech while it is still operating. Think 2nd and 3rd world manufacturing; far larger than you probably imagine.

- Workaccount2 3y agoMy company has a huge legacy business where we are still manufacturing brand new PC boards with intel 8086's on them. We have a huge inventory of 40 year old chips for it, lol. Nobody wants to upgrade when the current system still works and can be supported (however painfully).
