Indeed. My department's Mac lab (yep, the FrankenLab of ill-repute) runs OS 9 only.
Initially, it was because of some problems with dual boot (and the machines not having enough RAM); then it was because of the RAM issue, and now, quite frankly, I think it is because I'm the only Mac person in the department and nobody else is even remotely aware of the big difference between OS 9 & OS X. Oh, and the fact that some sim program for a computer architecture class only runs on OS 9... But we OS niners still exist... even when we would rather not.
