is a word processor a vintage computer or typewriter?
It depends on how you use it. If you only write letters with it then it's
a "typewriter". If you hacked a general purpose OS into the ROM then it
could be considered a vintage computer, if it's ten years old or older.
But really, it's niether. As your subject line indicates, it's a word
processor.
