IIRC Microsoft will still patch and provide security updates for XP in certain circumstances, military, government, healthcare, etc...
Working as a carpenter I see a ton of outdated shit in homes. The last bathroom I remodeled had old Victorian looking tin ceiling that was covered up by a drop ceiling. It actually looked really cool, but it was way too corroded and beat up to keep. They were panels something like this...
A lot of the old construction was made with better materials. For example nails used to look like this...
I'll run across them them to time when working on old buildings.
If there's one thing I've learned recently in my career, it's that the government moves slowly to catch up with the times.

Everybody else hates driving it at work, it doesn't have power steering so you have to muscle it. I shift at 4200rpm and the mufflers rusted off years ago so there's only about 4 feet of exhaust, they can hear me from 3 miles away. The transmission isn't synchronized so it's got that old truck chick-chick sound when you shift. It's rusted, paint is faded, smokes like crazy, front end is loose, etc. But it's just awesome to drive.
