Even worse than hospital databases is the critical monitoring 
equipment running on Windows.  When our first child was born the 
fetal monitor crashed.  It was running Windows NT, and guess who had 
to get it back up and running when none of the Hospital staff could. 
I was not amused.  I was even less amused by how ancient of a version 
of the OS they had running on a very modern Dell box.
