They lost me at LILO. What year is this, again?

Oh, right. It's 2012 and uucp is still an essential part of Linux and BSD.

Doesn't anyone ever take out the trash?

LILO is actually still in considerably wide use in datacenters because Grub, after all those years, still hasn't stabilized (frequent issues with software RAID, GUID misdetection, etc.)
