HP is notorious for that. They abandon printers, plotters, scanners, who knows what all. That's (part of) why I never buy HP if any other brand will serve.

Part of the trouble, of course, is Microsoft's failure to maintain upward/downward compatibility. In mainframes, we never had that problem, with IBM at least. Essentially any application program that would run in OS/360 in 1965 still runs in OS/360's modern successors. Shame on Microsoft, and shame on HP.
