This basically only runs on A: old hardware + operating system (no go, need to do other workstation tasks at that company), or B: a windows 7 virtual machine with DOS compat set up, anything else isn't working, windows 7 validation servers were recently taken down leaving things in a precarious state of support. That's basically what I would call held together by duct tape at this point
Kind of like Docker, you mean?
Someone: Operating systems are too complicated.

Docker: rebuilds virtualized operating system
