   aren't found on their site, but it seems to be a moderate amount of support   
   for the legacy products since.

   From my point of view:   
   HP -> Support only with a contract (e.g. Server BIOS Updates) and they dumped   
   all of my beloved HPUX-content :(   
   DELL -> kina OK, no support contract needed   
   Intel -> dumped a lot of legacy stuff; use https://archive.org/d   
   tails/downloadcenter.intel.com instead
