[BrightCandle]

Atari 2600 is the first computer I ever used. First programmed one was the C64. A few other machines until the first "personal computer" which was Tiny PC with Pentium 100, 16MB RAM and a 1GB hard drive.

An old windows 98 laptop with 64mb ram and a 20gb hdd. 2inches thick and was a beast... Well maybe it would've been had it not been 2004... If you mean desktops instead my custom built in my sig is my first.

Acer Aspire x3200 is my second computer. The one in my sig is the third. I forget what the first one was, but I think it was from HP and had Windows XP on it.

[jscho]

I honestly can't remember. It was about 14 years ago our family PC was an IBM.

In 2005 or 2006 I got my first computer, which was a laptop. I think it was a Toshiba Tecra 7xx or something like that. (PI, Win 95, dead spot in top corner of backlight, 5 minute battery, SLOW, etc.)

 

First desktop was in 2006 or 07. PIII 766MHz, 256MB RAM, 64MB Radeon, 1024x768 CRT, etc.

 

I haven't really had up to date tech until the end of 2012 when I upgraded from my P4 system. For a while my laptop was actually better than my desktop because it had a Core 2 Duo.. I could write for pages on my computer history.. (3 desktops and over 20 laptops..) The P4 system I got in 2009 started out as a crummy Compaq low profile desktop. By 2012 I had upgraded so much that literally the only parts that didn't change were the 3GHz CPU, heatsink, (Because it was reeeealy good. I still have it.) and the CD drive.

 

(Tecra 740CDT. I think this was the one I had.)

[Pulsus]

i still have my, but it's out of it's case, if i wanted i could make it work, but the hard drive died...

[ubuntusuperuser]

i still have a cpc-464 (from 1984) on my desk

[Tea1337]

iMac G3, from 1999 or 2000, it was red in color. For me and my older sister at the time to use for fun, as well as our parents work. (2005ish)

I have a Sharp portable PC-whatever from 1987.

 

(I lost the MS-DOS floppy and the battery is obviously flat so it's useless.)

Some of you won't believe me, some will think I'm a spoiled brat, but heres my first computer :

[L_Dub]

The first one I used is a old Win 98 tower and until my mother got a gateway Win. XP we had nothing else, Just recently (2010) got a dell with Windows 7 and until last year i had nothing but that dell. That all changed when i built my computer and i'm pretty sure that now and forever more i'll be on the front line of tech!

The Atari 2600 wasn't a "computer". It was a gaming system. It was just the first system to utilize microprocessor-based hardware. I too had a 2600 and a C64, running GEOS.

First "PC" was a 286.

[TopplesS]

First PC we ever got was some horrid HP machine running Win ME - went back under warranty a few times in the first year and was general rubbish.
Next system was my mum's new custom built system back when XP was just released, had a whopping great big 120GB HDD, 512MB RAM, P4 3.06GHz and a Radeon X300se. Thing was a beast and played everything I could throw at it.

After that came my first own personal PC which consisted of parts of these systems when they got replaced in 2006-7. Was a good little beast.

A windows 95 IBM computer

It was black, and the monitor had speakers on the side of it, and a volume knob that would also act as a power button.

There are other computers in my house but they are not mine.

[Lil Chillbil]

Used this as my sole computer from 2004-2011 with 0 upgrades done to the inside, by the time I opened it up in 2012 after it sitting idle for a year it was the 1st time the seal was broken and the fans wouldn't even spin from the amount of dust

My first "very own" computer http://www.pcworld.com/product/1300318/hp-pavilion-dv6-6124ca-entertainment-notebook-pc.html

[elecxonica]

My first computer was a Mitac desktop. All i know about it is it has 512 MB of RAM, a Pentium 4 of some sort actually, it's a celeron and windows XP Home.

 

My first computer i actually owned was a 1997 Toshiba Satellite Pro. not exactly sure on the specs, but i know it has a Pentium 3 and a DVD Drive. It was also as old as me.

 

Unfortunately I don't have the model numbers of either of the systems, and don't have the laptop any more.

[Matthias2556]

This baby from 2006

not really that old, but im not that old either

it had pretty good specs for 2006: core 2 duo dual core, 4 gbs ram, 250gb hard drive, windows vista (maybe xp, cant remember)

it still works, i use it for doge coin mining. so far, 25.4 dogecoins in 1 week

[Constantine]

I honestly don't remember. All I remember was it ran old DOS and Win95 and I was jealous of my cousins because I couldn't play Jazz Jackrabbit on mine.
