[BC] Oldest Computer still in daily service?

[WFIFeng@aol.com]

Along the lines of the oldest transmitter, how about the oldest computer 
still in daily service?

I've seen several mentions of old 286 boxes that are still used, but 
seldom... so my question is for those old machines you use (or are serving a useful 
purpose) every day.

I'm sure mine won't qualify, but at least should qualify as an "also-ran"... 

It's an old PC running transmitter monitoring and logging 24/7. (We're a 
daytimer, but that PC just runs constantly.) It's an AMD 5x86 133Mhz with a 1.2G 
HD. All still original. The only "updates" this box has seen wer software. It 
went from Windows 3.11 to 95, to 98, to 98SE where it remains today.

If memory serves, it went into service in 1994 or 1995, making it nearly 11 
years old. It has been in use, literally, every day since it was built. When it 
was "retired" from office use, it went straight to the transmitter room. We 
keep a DOS 6.2 disk around to boot it if we need to update the Burk EAS box. 
Last time we had to do that was when the "CAE" code was added.
