I actually still think the pixel art approach could work for training technical staff (of around my age, anyway). It's got a consistent, attractive (to my eyes) aesthetic and is schematic and scaleable.

Graphic assets can be owned by the company and re-used to its heart's content.

You could even make little animated walkthoughs and stuff...

This is a picture of a nano GSM base tranceiver station.

I did it at/for work with the vague notion that the technical manual I was writing could be "cool", "fun" and "stylish" if given a coherent visual look.

I've been looking for a mspaint clone to use at home on my linux laptop. Have tried many, and think I finally have a winner in Kolourpaint.

Seems like it has mspaint's functionality with some of the more annoying non-features corrected. Like, this thing scrolls the page when you go to expand outside the border. Good thinking, batman!
