Vendor intends to stop marketing, selling, or sustaining it. In the specific case of product sales, a vendor may employ the more specific term "end-of-sale" (EOS). Different lifetime examples include toys from fast food chains, cars (10 years), and mobile phones (3 years). 7 EOL in Computing In the computing field, the concept of end-of-life has significance in the production, supportability and purchase of software and hardware products. Microsoft marked Windows 98 for end-of-life on June 30, 2006. Its software produced after that date, such as Office 2007 (released November 30, 2006), is not supported on Windows 98 or any prior versions. 8 EOL in Computing Depending on vendor, end-of-life may differ from end of service life, which has the added distinction that a vendor of systems or software will no longer provide maintenance, troubleshooting or other support. Such software which is abandonded service-wise by the original developers is also called Abandonware. 9 EOL in .
