@lukstru Some other story that really happened. A company moved to another place, so step by step they located and moved the servers in the server room from the old to the new location. In the end there was a single server left in the server room. They didn't knew the purpose and were sure that they needn't that server - and they were right. Several years ago that company belonged to another company in the same area. At one point in time the company had been sold. That server belonged to the old company and still served a critical purpose for them.
