While I think we're getting considerably off-topic for this list, there are real and unfortunate reasons to run old, outdated OS releases. In a previous life, our software development firm simply didn't stop supporting our software packages. Ever. As a result, we had to keep old SunOS, Solaris, IRIX, AIX, and HP-UX systems running, as they were our only method of testing customer issues. Is this ideal? No. Does it follow best practices? Nope. But it was a business requirement, and therefore it happened.
