Vintage means "of a particular era" so vintage 2000's OS is Windows 98/ME, WIndows NT/2000. Otherwise you're just chasing a year and each year "vintage" is whatever that particular year minus 30 is. Which to me is silly but everyone insists (since the dawn of "vintage computing") to bracket a range a dates around "vintage computing" which then elicits the 800 peanut gallery responses about what everyone thinks vintage computing is and it goes around and around and around and around and around. At least consider there has to be a better way. Bill On Wed, Jun 26, 2024 at 4:22 PM Gregg Levine via vcf-midatlantic < vcf-midatlantic@lists.vcfed.org> wrote:
Hello! I am again trying one of my blue sky ideas, one to work on between right now, and again of the next repair weekend. That will be onsite.
Would any of you good people remember the time period for a representative OS for when we can call it a Vintage Operating system? Last time I checked it was 1995.
