There's nothing inherently wrong with using old systems or technologies, and a lot of people tend to conflate "old" with "bad." In mission-critical systems, "don't fix what ain't broke" is more important than being on the bleeding edge. — PolitiTweet.org

But there are times when "old" starts to become a liability, and that is usually when systems are no longer supported by vendors with security updates or when the knowledge to operate the technology becomes so rare that it becomes its own point of failure. — PolitiTweet.org
