If they are inconvenienced by having to upgrade from Windows XP to continue support, why the heck are they migrating to a different legacy Windows version (non-current)<p>With all the headache and expense of this, I don't feel sorry for them if they didn't (yet) learn their lesson! I hoped/wished that banking would have the sense to use a customized *nix server for this sort of thing that can be supported in-house as long as there are computers and people who work on them (where you don't have that kind of access to self-patch windows)
A question that occurred to me reading this: ATMs aren't connected to the internet, are they? (Seems like that would be very tempting for the bank in terms of convenience, but very dangerous.)
