{{Factioninfobox
The Binteji Renmei (translated in English as The Vintage Federation) is itself inspired by the remarkable Anime/Manga  Haibane Renmei created by Yoshitoshi Abe. It is a non-profit organization dedicated primarily to assisting vintage and abandoned OS-tans, and providing a voice for them in a world that barely remembers them. It was originally conceived by [[Amiga | Amiga-tan]], having spent several years as a wanderer and witnessing the plight of countless vintage OS-tans (once the marvel of their day) whittling the remainder of their lives in obscurity. However, in a rare bout of compassion by [[UNIX | Unix]], she provided the funding to help Amiga-tan make the Binteji Renmei a reality, and to this date continues to offer the fledgling faction a token annual stipend.

The Binteji Renmei is not rich by any stretch of the imagination and many of its members are either too outdated to work a decent-paying job or require special assistance. Nevertheless they remain very talented and resourceful individuals, and by binding together as a community they're able to pool their resources far more effectively, as well as discover newfound strengths and motivations. Self-esteem, self-education and self-sufficiency are among the many values that they help each other learn and practice to a fault. Whereas once the organization subsisted entirely on charity, now it's grown and sustained itself to the point where it can offer charity of its own. If not in the form of money, certainly in the form of hope.

Hope for any OS-tan resigned to the belief that happiness and belonging are reserved only for the state-of-the-art.

There have been been several success stories of Vintage-tans' lives improving vastly from their days as a wanderer, and former rivals becoming great friends but the Binteeji Renmei constantly faces money shortages, therefore not being able to upgrade their equipment and most of the Vintage-tans can't work a good paying job. They also have to fight against the tide of hopelessness and apathy that have overtaken many of their former friends and colleagues who live as wanderers, leaving some Vintage-tans to question their own self-worth. Still, the Vintage-tans are not the type to give up.
