Sure, the PS/2 Model 25 and 30 were 8086. There's a lot of x86 gear still in production in industrial environments. I've got a customer running part of a semiconductor line on industrial 286s with no plans to retire them anytime soon. Not the oldest systems I support for $day_job by far. And of course there's plenty of hobbyist interest in older x86 stuff.
