My SEM runs windows 98 (2nd ed) on a 233MHz PC, I have upgraded the EDX from NT to 2000. other equipment runs on 98 and can't be 'upgraded'.

In fact it is terribly sad, one of the drivers for replacing a $100K piece of scientific apparatus is that the $500 PC can't be upgraded to the current security protocols.
