It's important, but mainly because of funding or other resources that can't pull legacy applications into new formats.

I think that obsolete soft and hardware should be ditched, but primarily due to reliability, speed and security issues that progress whilst the older technology stagnates.

I'm glad we're seeing a new focus on emulators and virtual machines. This can allow us to keep the security and speed issues to a minimum and still support older technology.
