   I think what is *classic* depends on when/what the individual cut their teeth   
   on.  For me anything <= 486 is classic (although that's edging up to the first   
   gen Pentiums these days).  There are kids today that think a P4 is classic,   
   and then there's the old greybeards that don't consider it classic unless is   
   drew 10KW and used paper tape.   
      
   Do what you like and don't worry about labels :).
