Except for the fact that linux is even better at running those old apps from other vendors by now. Try running Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 software under linux with wine.
I'm sure all those enterprise clients are positively champing at the bit to switch to Linux ๐ Can I have a conversation about computers here without it being about Linux? And I say this as somebody who uses Linux full-time on all their computers.
Enterprise clients are paying for legal liability not for security, quality, etc. It's pure theatre.
