Apart from academia (in the old days) and the well known things like 
stock exchanges, mobile-phone systems, and so on, I've seen VMS in the 
wild at IKEA (not just the back end, but in the stores; not that long 
ago, the cashiers had a VT520 or whatever) and at the Dutch police 
department (an FMS application).
