You've obviously never done remote desktop application maintenance then...
I remember a few thousand call centre desktops being killed (BSOD) because someone used the wrong version of a system DLL that came with an application install. Fair enough, they should have tested properly, but differences between DLL version 4.0.3.1924 and 4.1.0.2001 (or whatever) do have severe consequences on occasion!
This was NT though, to be fair.
Their rains are nicer (and faster) too.
Still costs £8/hr unless you are in First Class (in which case it is "free"), but that isn't too bad if you are working - not so good for personal use though.
They are one of the better train companies although £124 to travel from Leeds to London in peak hours isn't cheap!

If you look at where the recent tsunami hit, parts of Thailand which have been badly affected were "sheltered" behind Sumatra.
Looks like tsunami waves can diffract like any other kind of wave....
