I would like to see a similar list for Apple. I think Apple's list would be shorter, because Apple releases fewer products.



Depends if you include individual hardware lines - remember Apple has been around for 20+ years longer than Google. If you include each individual product, Apple discontinued far more products before Google was even founded than are on the entire Google list (which is admittedly incomplete): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Apple_Inc._product...


They acqui-killed DeskConnect (in the process of acqui-hiring Workflow) which was an astonishingly useful cross-platform AirDrop-alike.

Apple as discontinued a fair number of software products, just off the top of my head:

Aperture Shake Sherlock iSync ClarisWorks/AppleWorks (iWork seems to be a different beast) HyperCard WebObjects iDVD iChat (iMessage was never an AIM client)
