What does it matter? It's still a nearly 12 year old operating system. Look at Apple, they stop supporting OS-X versions after about 4 years. Ubuntu only offers 5 years of support on their LTS releases. Technology moves too fast to keep supporting ancient software.

Trying to support legacy products on legacy operating systems just wastes resources that could otherwise be put towards improving drivers for the latest and greatest.
