Yeah, I could be wrong. And in this case, I'd be very happy to be wrong.
Again, let's table this for discussion until it's appropriate - which is
when PC/Windows machines are no longer the current paradigm. I say it's
going to be many many years, you say it's not - but neither really matters,
let's see what happens :)
I wasn't arguing regarding the "rule". I think the updated definition is
fine. I would just as soon not argue over it ever again and just hope
people have enough sense to understand what "classic" means.
I was just pointing out that things are becoming "classic" more quickly
than you might imagine ;) I also used to think PCs wouldn't be classic or
interesting for decades, but that's proving to be completely wrong--at
least in my case.
