What was your first computer?

[elecxonica]

Gradiente MSX Expert.

 

Circa 1987.

 

Amazing gaming machine for the time. Light-years ahead of any console.

That is the best thing I've seen in this thread so far.

My very first computer was a dell intel core 2 duo quad core with a 500gb HDD, windows 7, and an nvidia gts 240. I still use the gts 240 in my small form factor LAN PC.

(By first computer I mean all mine. my family had 2 others before but I just counld'nt remember for the lyfe of me what they were)

Compaq Presario 2286, my dad bought it for me when I started highschool in 1999.

It was amazing.

I had a very similar model, but with a standard mid tower case.  It was from 1999 and it had Windows 98 on it.....I had it until 2005 when I finally got a desktop with windows XP on it.

There never was a quad core Core 2 Duo... Just dual cores... That's what Duo means.

wrong twice. The Fairchild Channel F is the first microprocessor based console

 

The IBM 5150, which used the 8088 is the first PC. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Personal_Computer

My first PC was a 258, not "the" first pc. Also the Atari really popularized the use of microprocessors in consoles. Yes, the FCF came first.

[Norwegiantweaker]

Asus prebuilt with a geforce someting someting old shit, and then i got a asus laptop that still kicks ass in games on high/med settings

[brownninja97]

Fujitsu siemens

 

I dunno what the full name was.

[TheSLSAMG]

Bondi Blue iMac G3 running OS 8....let the hate come

I can only love that piece of art.

Okay, the first computer in the house that I used was a Compaq Presario 6450NX. Pentium 4, 256MB RAM, Windows XP.

 

The next, it's a curveball. My first personal desktop, and still one of my favorite computers. A Late 2011 Mac Mini. Intel Core i5 2415M, 8GB RAM, 120GB SSD, 500GB HDD, OS X Mavericks/Windows 7 dual boot.

 

And the most recent, my beautiful but flawed main rig. I hope to get a Thermaltake Water 2.0 Performer, MSI Z87 MPOWER, Intel Core i7 4790K/4770K and NZXT Kraken G10 for it.

The first computer I ever used was an old IBM PC running MS-DOS (probably 3.0 or 4.0, whichever was before Windows 95). Looked something like this:

 

The first computer I ever owned was a Compaq laptop before it was acquired by HP, in 2004. 

Since then, I've owned a variety of pre-built and custom built PCs. 

[Coombzy]

My own personal first computer was a laptop by some weird company it was a very slow Pentium M I think, quickly replaced by an Acer Aspire 7540

then the first PC my family let me used was a pentium 4 @ 3GHz and 1GB of RAM (gone now )

[Dr_Orpington]

A Dell Latitude D610.

(It's a crappy laptop)

[Rageodontist]

sorry Core 2 Quad 9400.

[Fullmetal1212]

Fist one I use had a hard drive small enough that a scanner we were fixing scanned a picture and the software overwrit windows because the hard drive filled.

[ItsRetorical]

My first pc was the HP P6-2316 Sadly which some of the components I still use today but It had

AAHD2-HY (Holly2) motherboard (it's god awful)

Amd A4-3420 2.8ghz (not the best but trusty with stock cooling I can push it to 3.1 no prob.)

4gb of ram (cheapest stuff ever)

integrated graphics

NO built in wireless card

500GB HDD

300W power supply

My First Computer was an Old OEM Dell PC from back in 2000. It has a staggering 1GB of RAM and an Nvidia 7800GT That computer killed games at max settings! Eventually though my mobo became outdated and the Dell OEM case didn't allow mobo swapping so when the parts list got too long I got stucck with console gaming instead for 8 long years. Now I've got a great machine that I absolutely love and will be upgrading a few things here and there as time goes on!

[JCLOOL]

i dunno it was 133 Ghz and my second one was 333 Ghz it was much faster

[Verafice]

Some 486 with DOS and Windows 3.1. Don't remember much more specific about the hardware. 4mb of RAM maybe, 2x or 4x CD drive, hmmm...

The one thing I miss from back then has to be the proliferation of turbo buttons on cases.

[Lord Pantaloons]

The only thing that I remember about it is that it was white

[PC_Master99]

some old Machine running Windows 98, I got it in 2007, did not run anything of mine, so I got a better machine 1.4Ghz Athlon XP, 512mb RAM, 40GB HDD, Nvidia Geforce 3000 series ti200, and got that in 2008

My first computer was custom built by my Dad and I could use it at a young age.

 

Actually, I just remembered that I use to play on a commodore Vic-20 (cannot exactly remember the model name) with a Cassette player called the Commodore 1530 Datassete Unit model C2N  .. Which I used a lot in 1998-1999 at the age of 2.

[LOLPhilips]

I can't remember the series or any kind of name it had.. But it was a Tulip Computers (Dutch) made pc bought by my dad in '93 (I was around 5 at the time)

[JaeDee884]
