End of Sale and End of Life

Hello Everyone. Happy Halloween.

How normal is it to have EoL/Eos devices running in your infrastructure some even playing the important role of critical device.

Currently, in my environment, we have a few ASAs5510-5585 and Cisco 4900/4948. Ok that's a lie its more than a few. Its quite a lot. We're talking about an entire DC running of these switches. Has anyone worked in such a network where the refusal to purchase new/supported equipment is resisted to the extent that they rather run of unsupported hardware?

Note that not everywhere in this network is bad but there is a crap ton of hardware like this that is EoL functioning as "Core routers".
