Not true. I have used LIFUTIL on a fairly modern IBM (Lenovo now) laptop.

It will not work within a Windows NT/2K/XP DOS window, but it will work fine under either DOS or in a DOS window under Windows 95/98/ME

I use the ISA buss HP-IL card and the registered version of EMU[47]1. I copy the source disk file by file, either with my real 71B, or with EMU71, to an emulated 9114 floppy on the PC.

Regards,
Howard

So what? You are working with old devices. Be grateful that there's a way to communicate with newer hardware.
