IBMRISC got skipped 3/4 years ago
Next was CEREBUS, (replaced by KYDD a compaq box with redhat)
Vax cluster went 2 years ago
River's services had been wound down and it was skipped just after the
vaxen

All main services have been based on NT/W2K servers, but spam filtering
and DNS are/will be moving to linux, possibly some of the oracle boxes
aswell.
