anything that runs on an older CPU will probably run on a newer CPU of the
same family, so one might as well include the newer ones. I don't know what

I do.  The answer is to define what's on-topic using carefully chosen words,
not dumbed-down years.  LOL, I'm not saying I know what those words might
be.  But in general I think there should be healthy debate and discussion
(not necessarily here and now) rather than the usual "you're an idiot" vs.
"no you are" that spawns here every six months.
