Interesting. Why does Apple consider Apple computers 1-3 as Mac desktops? :/
Different people will have different definitions of 3vintage2.

Umm, no. The only definition that matters is the market's.

nope. apple makes and supports the products, so they get to decide when it's vintage or obsolete. nobody else.
Oh, I see. You're making your own definitions for words up as you
go along. "Obsolete", sure. But "vintage"? Nope.

It might have something to do with the fact that they typically sit on
top of a desk or table while being used. :/

That is why they are desktops. However, they are not Macs.

While that's a good point, the obvious answer is that Apple doesn't
actually consider them to be Macs, and that they show up in that list
on that page simply because they are Apple computers that are now obsolete.

it's not worth having an entirely separate section for only 3 models.
