I did this on an environmental chamber temp controller a while back because it was running an embeded version of windows.

I used to work at an amusement park and the roller coaster I worked on had a touch screen in the control booth that was connected to windows 2000s PC in the room below the station where all the PLCs that controlled the ride were. Best I could tell the windows PC would monitor the PLCs and the screen up top would show us errors and just general ride info.

Anyways one of coworkers was saying the previous year the ride was down and one of the maintenance dudes was down there playing solitaire cause it was showing up on the screen in the booth.
