I still don't think you should run anything mission critical on Windows...

However, this really should say that they don't use crowdstrike and even if they wanted to they couldn't because it wouldn't run on the systems they ARE using.

Nothing like bragging that your systems are so comically out of date that calling it legacy is a joke and playing it off that your stuff still works because of it.

From the post:

>Nearly every flight in the U.S. is grounded right now following a CrowdStrike system update error that’s affecting everything from travel to mobile ordering at Starbucks — but not Southwest Airlines flights. Southwest is still flying high, unaffected by the outage that’s plaguing the world today, and that’s apparently because it’s using Windows 3.1.

Yet another article that attributes this to Windows. No, it's because they aren't running (((CrowdStrike))).

I used Windows 3.11 until Windows 98 SE came out.
