It's obsolescent. ISA devices still work, barring malfunction. You can still buy new ISA gear in the PC/104 and industrial world. It's simple and, in a lot of situations, sufficient for the task.
Yeah, from what I gather on the internet you'd surprised about some of the truly ancient hardware and software still in use. I have considered buying a retro PC but am not sure if that is what I truly want. I am happy with my current pc until it fails and using DOSBox if I feel like retro gaming or coding.

Did you read it anyway? Well, you can find all sorts of stuff I made using various programming languages over here:
