There is one area (at least) where 98 has it for me over XP
- accessing the serial port.

Many years ago I bought a box that can be programmed to
divert incoming phone calls to different phones on the basis
of their CLI.

This box (obviously) needs to be programmed with a list of
numbers that goes to port 2, while other go to port 1.

The software that came with the box was written in visual
basic and works fine on 98 - I think it was still 95 when it
was written.

The software runs fine under XP and even 7, allowing me to
edit the phone numbers and so on - except that under XP and
7 it will not talk to the box.

Googling for help finally told me that from XP software has
been banned from directly addressing the serial port (which
is how the box connects to the computer).

So I need to keep an ancient laptop running 98 to deal with
this task.
