Can you elaborate on this? I'm a new developer and would be interested in this perspective. If they have a new, energized staff that is shipping software on time and have old, untouched software that still works and communicates with the new software, what is the problem with that?

Looks like many agree with you, so I'm really curious about what problems arise long-term from decisions like that.

I mean...our legacy code is in BASIC...but if they told me I needed to maintain the BASIC programs, I would probably quit.
