What do you consider a hobbyist system?

One that the vendor no longer supports and supplies fixes for and I as a maintainer of the software no longer have no access to test it myself. If it's not even tested how can it be used? It has a high probability of not working anyway!


bear in mind that Ernie's frame of reference is that anything older than
a year is probably too far into the past to consider (look at his webpage
for an example of his notion of "support").


Which webpage would that be?
