Vintage you mean. Had a coworker point out that Apple calls really old Apple products vintage, it can't be called old or obsolete for whatever reason.

Quoting from the Apple page linked that you responded to: “Obsolete products are those that were discontinued more than 7 years ago.“

Vintage and obsolete are two different categories. Vintage = 5-7 years after last manufacture vs 7+ for obsolete. Service is generally not available for vintage or obsolete products, however some places like California have service for vintage products available.

Yeah that sounds like something apple would do, they love their orwellian language.
