You are correct in that some more relatively modern machines could be 
considered classic.

Something can only be classic once the current paradigm is sufficiently 
different from the paradigm in place at the time of the machine in question.

When Windows based PC's are no longer the mainstay of the market, then, 
possibly, they could be considered classic, if the new paradigm is vastly 
different. However, we can talk about this when PC's are no longer the 
concept of the common computer. That will be a long long time most likely. 
My own personal prediction is that (currently) modern PC's won't be classic 
in our lifetimes.
