There are applications that require MyISAM and the Innodb is not an
option at all because critical parts of the application just doesn't
work with innodb and if the application is proprietary software you
can't do much about it but continue to use MyISAM.

People usually ignore such cases and insist that there is absolutely
no reason to use MyISAM.
