Hahahahahaha, I still periodically see win2k/2k3 on the network at some clients, with SMBv1 enabled across the domain to make the CISO's eye twitch

back in 2017, the company I worked at had a win 2K server. Crazy shit. It was for a critical system (ran the phone system)

Fucking phone systems! That's what these are, and we have to snap them any time they're rebooted because sometimes they just shut the bed randomly, but the client doesn't want to buy a new system....

But, it's their wallet and they're willing to pay the "fuck you pay me" legacy surcharge.
