I still have functioning WinXP and Win98 virtual machines.

Same. I don't even use them though.

About a year ago I was moving old backups to newer, larger drives and I came across stuff I had archived in an old format. They could only be opened by Win98. Something similar with XP. There are custom pieces of software that only work on XP.

Hush! You use them one day, like the 800+ cables that lives in a miscellaneous drawer/bin!
