I have to
explain quite often that a 'vintage computer' does not mean a
486-based PC.
Maybe, but maybe not. The 486 is 21 years old now, and not as easy to find as
one might expect. For comparison, when I first started collecting vintage
computers, the pdp-8/e was 22 years old.
I think that means I started a couple of years before you,...
But anyway, I don;'t think age is the sole criterion for determining
'vitagenaess'. I really do have great difficult regarding any PC as being
'vintage' (with the possible exception of the IBMs that started it, and
some of the PS/2s, possibly).
