Vintage vs. original?

[JareWill]

Is there a difference between a Vintage Atari 2600 and a Original Atari 2600? I'm pretty sure Vintage just means it's old but I'm not sure.

I'm not an expert on these kind of things, but I would assume those terms are interchangeable. The original Atari is considered a vintage system.

Original = Black Plastic Frontplate
Vintage = Wood Paneling Frontplate

So the Vintage is still a product of Atari? or is it a generic remake?

Yes, It's still belongs to Atari.
The Original was made in '79, the Vintage in 80-83.
