Dude, every bit of critical infrastructure around you is running Windows XP and McAfee ePO. The shit hidden in segregated control networks would make a security researcher from 2009 cringe.

Where I live infrastructure is actually a bit more modern, but I have seen Windows XP, 2003, 2008 very recently too.
