10 year rule

The terms are too similar, people will just get more confused. All I intended to do when I started this discussion topic was to point out the obsurdity of considering things like the Web and Pentiums as "vintage" (or any other synonym). But then others observed back that I was being short-sighted -- if you ignore that actual age, "vintage" just means "anything considered obsolete by the mainstream," and that's a good enough answer for me. But I do think that 15 years, not 10, is a better divider between what's just "old" and what's truly vintage. --- Ladyelec(a)aol.com wrote: ===== Tell your friends about the Computer Collector Newsletter! -- It's free and we'll never send spam or share your email address -- Publishing every Monday(-ish), ask about writing for us -- Mainframes to videogames, hardware and software, we cover it all Visit the museums directory and read about past events at our web site: http://news.computercollector.com Contact us at news(a)computercollector.com 585 readers and counting!
