Speaking of computers in hopsitals, here's a funny story:
When I worked at the University Hospital in Trondheim, Norway back in 1996, we did most service on all sorts of clinical-medical equipment.
One day we received an ultrasound machine which had some problems with the main ultrasound unit. It was a red, metallic custom case bolted onto a mobile PC desk with wheels. It was a funny looking thing, but the first thing that caught my eyes was the keybard. It looked strikingly familiar....
We popped the hood, and voila - wouldn't you know, a vanilla C64. It had some sort of a cardridge connected to the ultrasound unit, and that's about all I remember. I also saw a few Apple ]['s, but they were already retired, stored away in the basement.
It's worth mentioning that the C64 had been running since early 1980's without any problems at all. No upgrades, no errors. It just did its job, every single day.
Wonder if the Vista workstations will do the same until the 2020's? ;-)
