Imagine revealing you've never worked for a company whose IT infrastructure is older than you
The nice thing about FORTRAN is there's hardly anyone left who speaks the deep magic so network attacks aren't much of a concern.
These issues are not in windows 98 PCs, these issues are almost entirely on up to date hardware.
linux isn't new, at all
And the companies with that type of infrastructure are still like 50/50 on DOS not windows
The fact that your infrastructure is old is not an excuse and something to brag about
