Never heard anyone with the answer. Vintage is era and age mentality specific, so really
I think you'll be stuck with the timeline to weed out the majority, or sift through
the offers. Eventually we'll all be kicking ourselves for not hanging on the Xeon and
2000 based electronics.
Kinda one of those beggars can't be choosers philosophies ;-) I used to get pissed
off at Goodwill for taking only newer computers which now adays they don't, they take
lots of great vintage systems and send them to the chipper too now.

Hmm, have people on here ever found a *sensible* way of
defining our interests such that it's obvious we're *not*
interested in that x86 clone PC running Windows that you
bought in 2002 and have just unearthed in your garage?
