you are young.One week until I leave my twenties behind, I know the feeling
Or better yet, never connect those old PCs to interweb and use a current PC to download updates and scan them for malware before installing them either using a CD or NW share. I have clients who still use Win XP for their industrial tools and those PCs are strictly off the network.

Thanks you!!! Someone needed to say it. I feel like most people don't understand how much this project simplifies updating old versions of Windows. And who cares about security, it's not like you're running a version that old on your main machine.

Well even the latest versions of Windows isn't secure. That being said a lot of people use older versions in some oddball scenarios that you may not have considered. Some people don't want to run an emulator. Some people can't afford to pay for additional software development and their software doesn't work even with compatibility layers. Software is a real mess. And yes, there will be people who say they expect decades of support from the same version of an OS. Security is important though it's not going to stop people from doing what they want or need to do, regardless of whether we agree/comprehend it or not.
