organology 

Organology is not, as you might expect, the study of organs--either human or pipe--but rather, the study and classification of musical instruments in general, which just doesn't make any goddamned sense. Why isn't it called "instrumentology?" It is a field that musicologist usually enter when they can't even hack their own field, so that in the hierarchy of music it is sort of like second viola in a string quartet.

Organologusts, only a step above Musical Iconographers (q.v.), have to resort to the study of the forms, history, and classification of the instruments that real musicians get to play and that real scholars get to write about.

abandonware 

n. software that is no longer sold or supported by the original publisher / developer, often found as free downloads on the internet because it cannot be obtained elsewhere. Not legal, but often seen as morally acceptable because the company that made it is no longer selling the title, nor releasing it as freeware, therefore abandonware is "keeping the game alive", so to speak.
Doom II is not abandonware because id still sells it, while The Incredible Machine is not sold, therefore is abandonware.
