Doom On April 9, 95% of ATMs run XP
"Believe it or not, roughly 95 percent of ATMs in the world are still running Windows XP -- and that's about to become an expensive problem. Machine designer NCR says that only a third of banks will upgrade their ATMs to a newer OS before official XP support ends on April 8th"

Quite a few kiosk devices run some variant of Windows XP. It's distressingly common. Everything from modern arcade machines, help kiosks, and demo units to ATM's.
