> For what it's worth, the "XP" OS is often licensed and supported for well longer than a consumer SKU. IIRC microsoft provided support and security updates for embedded/appliance applications until 2019!
You're 100% right but that still means the thing has been sitting around for half a decade with no security updates whatsoever.
There is a fine line between stability and simply being a miser and refusing to update things within a reasonable period of time. Healthcare, especially corporate healthcare run by people other than physicians, is far to much on the miser end of the spectrum.

The majority of costs a person will typically have on a country are their initial K-12 education, and their health care costs later in life. Immigrants like these will never cost the government that first major cost.
At the same time, they are far more likely to have higher than median salaries when employed. That means higher taxes paid.
So from a purely economic point of view, an H-1B immigrant is a perfect profit center for government taxes.
Meanwhile a Canadian who gets their K-12 education here, gets a highly government subsidized post-secondary degree, then moves to the USA to work and pay taxes there is a huge loss, economically.
