Old PCs

[PCFreak]

I was just wondering about what was the first PC you guys ever purchased? I first got a 486SX/33 with 4 MB RAM just to play a demo of Doom.

First computer I bought was a Vic 20... but I was really too young to remeber anything about it.

The first PC I ever owned, was also the first one I built : a 386 DX/40 with 4MB of RAM. Ah, those were the days :-)

Wow, good times, good times! First machine in my life was....either an Amstrad w/ no HD, forgot almost all specs. It had CP/M and a weird floppy drive in which the disks were the same width, but longer than a 3 1/2". They were double sided in teh sense that you could flip the disk over and save to the other side too! It had a built in amber/green monitor and an archaic dot matrix printer. The other one it could have been, like I said it's fuzzy, was a Franklin 400 (something like that). It was a clone of the Apple IIe, but was actually much better. The floppy was built in and it was much lighter and smaller and cooler looking. It was black instead of the beige yellowish of the IIe's. It was mated with a small color monitor and no printer.
