>>56980799

>>56980836
Don't correct me.
I know what I've seen.
And I'm old enough to recognize DOS.
>>56980873
I'll correct you all i want idiot. Most of them run XP
>>56980888
That may or may not be.
Mine don't.
>>56980896

>>56980903
Doubt all you want.
I know what I saw.
And if definitely was DOS.
They mostly run OS/2

An ATM most likely will be running one of the different releases of windows XP embedded. That's still getting security updates till 2019
>>56980919
How do you know it wasn't linux?
>>56980919
No proof. Poor kid probably saw a command prompt window and mistook it for dos.
>>56980921
Not anymore, now they mostly run Windows, or some embedded realtime shit nobody cares about (I'm looking at you, QNX).
> Windows XP
Apparently, the USA has backwards infrastructure for almost everything.

If you think euro corporations are any less lazy or less averse to spending on software upgrades - you should probably kill yourself right now.
