Although old but still veteran 🍋

Who would have thought that in the age when AI started coding for humans and the world arrived in Windows 11, there was a legendary operating system like Windows 2000 Professional, secretly working quietly in Bangkok, not stored in a museum, but in a real role in an MRT ticket booth?

.

This was presented by an IT website like The Register, after a visitor accidentally saw a ticket locker rebooting so that it accidentally showed up the Windows 2000 Loading Screen. This job hit the full Geek line, even exclaiming, "Is it still there?"

.

The peak is that Windows 2000 was released in 2000 or more than 26 years ago, which was before the MRT Blue Line that started in 2004. The hallmark of this version of the operating system is its low-resource, stable, and reliable endurance.

.

It may sound strange to the average person, but in the industrial world, it is common to see veteran operating systems in machines, because software is often designed to work with specific hardware. However, it lasts for a long time until the time of release. The ticketing machine is closed, not connected to the public Internet, the more reason to update the OS.
