Can it be human?

Absolutely - humans can use any user-agent they want.

It could be someone using Safari on OSX, for example.

I'd guess it was probably a bot and might look for other signals.

Alternatively, I might restrict it to an "obsolete browser not supported" page.

What's wrong with old software?

Some of it is a security risk, some of it is so outdated that it is effectively useless.

But if you said "some old software is still useful, risk-free, fast and efficient" I would agree.

Unless you were talking about IE6, of course.
