I hope they at least disable the services that are not exclusively required by the ATM and firewall every port that's not needed. I understand that there are things that are going to make it in no matter what, but is it really a good idea to use an OS that's so common and has so many non-essential services active at installation? Who made the decision and why? It's not like there were any issues with the old systems other than finding techs that still know OS2.
