   Absolutely, however they do.   
      
   I worked at a military base, as civilian. They used some database   
   software to track spares, and even though the software was customized   
   for Spain, it came from the NATO, so they had to use that and Windows.   
   Although that Windows, among other features, ran updates from an   
   internal server, not directly from Microsoft. And it was an old version   
   of Windows, because the newest had not been certified.
