Of course only Cisco can answer that, but the newer images seem to run
fine on WS-C3550-12G and WS-C3550-24-EMI models at least. We're running
12.2(50)SE1 and SE3 on several.

I would suspect that they have simply stopped testing the releases on
the EoL'ed platforms, so some weird combination of firmware/hardware
issues might bite our behinds some day.

The 3550 was a very good platform IMHO. Far better than the 3560.
