I guess eventually all of those old Win9x systems will have to stop

Correction. Some of us will migrate directly to Linux. I personally use
WindowsME for the win32 programs I cannot (yet) run with wine and Linux
for the rest of the stuff. I plane no upgrade to Windows XP (Longhorn
or whatever comes next from the Dark Lords)...
