That is not entirely true. If you install a crappy legacy Desktop that makes your eyes bleed in disgust and was designed without any thought on usability, then you have plenty of alternatives.
On the other hand, if you run *such* old legacy machines it is most likely not because of cost but because some custom software. So good luck with Wine as well.
Such old boxes tend to have glitches and cause more cost by offtime than a newer low-end office pc would.
