i think the whole company is 7 years behind the curve in every aspect. but since were pretty much the only major steel maker and processor in the UK its kind of a monopoly if you like. so even though we are terrible, buyers dont have much choice unless they wanna spend stacks of cash.

we still have windows 2000 pcs here.

we even have at least one on 98 and 1 or 2 on 3.11 (although they aren't really desktop pcs, they run the CNC laser machines)
