There are valid reasons for some people to be stuck. For example, work computers they have no control over or niche software that will not work in WINE or Winboat. I know someone who still has Windows 98 because of a piece of ancient embroidering software that no longer exists, will not run on newer versions of Windows, and requires a hardware dongle that doesn’t work under Winboat or WINE.
