What was your first computer?

[ric96]

Pentium 3

512mb ram

40gb hdd

[Mattr567]

Compaq Prestario 7000 Win 98SE gaming rig.

Modded with new GPU, CPU, and Soundcard from the period. (2001)

Still have it, and still works!

 

[SirDigbyCC]

 

Had everything pictured here except the monitor, sold it with about 100 games on disk and another 200 or so on tape for £20 when I was about 8 or so when I was given a Win95 Pentium system, absolutely kicking myself now.

 

[Tickletehpickle]

Some Pentium 4 desktop with 512mb ram, windows XP sp1 40gb hdd 

[Seed]

Mac 128k

 

[Pickle]

It was a laptop in 2008. Intel Celeron @ 1.8GHz with intel graphics, 1GB of RAM. 

[Owade73]

I started using the computer when I was two or three.... The only thing I remember was the Windows 98 logo when the computer started. 

[Helios79]

I thought I could post that I had the oldest Mac as my first computer, but Seed beat me to it. I was given a Mac SE with 1MB of RAM and a 20MB SCSI hard drive. It ran OS 6.0.2 at first, and then updated to 7.1 after I upgraded the RAM to 2.5MB. That little bugger could run anything that I threw at it. Wireframe 3D, Pagemaker, you name it.

The first computer I could say was mine would be the Acer Aspire M1641. It had a Pentium e2200(2.2Ghz), 2Gb DDR2 Ram, a 160Gb Western Digital POS drive(it was lower than the WDBlue, which is a much better drive), and a sweet but loud "funnel ram" cpu heatsink. I started off with a 66mhz pentium machine, but that was more of a "family computer" than something that was just mine.

[S1AYA7]

my first ever computer was a windows 95 which I wish I knew the model of so I could find an image. But this thing had built in speakers! and 32MB of RAM! completely top of the line... I could play Duke Nukem 2 on it without lag

[PaulKolby]

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.

ha lol my mom has the same gpu in her 2005 dell

[Mr.Cellkill]

Had a commodore 64 first. But never saw it as a PC.

Olivetti pcs 11 Complete set. (Not my pc on the picture)

 

[swifty7]

first comp for me was the commodore vic-20.....I know...I know I'm a fossil.  But if you mean the very first proper desktop pc then it was the Amiga 1000.  I still love the Amiga line.

 

ahh!!  the good'old days!  

[virtualTune]

my own first PC was some Medion in 2001. My parents bought our first family PC in '94. Grey, everything was grey (or gray for the 'muricanos)

[Cupitor]

Dragged this out. Man, there was a 150 baud modem, cassette software player, two floppies. Dunno? Lost forever.

Specs: 6502 CPU running at a speedy 1.X MHz, 4Kilobytes of ram.

Goddamnit. I've hated apple since 1979.

[AnnoyedShelf]

Mine was an IBM. I was really young, so I don't remember the exact specs.  1 MB of RAM. 1GB hard drive.  Windows 3.1.  Could run Descent on max settings.

[Wingfan]

my first 

[Pesmerga]

An amiga 500, I was very young, used it mostly for games but I had workbench as well, years later I even got a printer for it, I wonder where it ended up, the Amiga itself is in my garage, I wonder if it's still ok D:

[Flight1sim]

Umm a sony PCG-something from 2000

 

And 2 older Pentium I and II systems from I think 1995 and 1996.

And a 2004 PC with an Athlon 64 

All at once

with RIVA TNT2 VANTAS, some old ATi cards, and a Geforce 2400 

[Guest]

My first computer was an IBM ThinkPad 385D that was running something like 200mhz and had 8?MB of ram. Didn't use it for much. I was super young. Played Flight Simulator 95 on it a bit.

 

Second was a Dell 4600 or something like that with a Pentium 4 HT and 512mb of ram. It's sort of what I consider my first real computer since it was the first one I actually really got into gaming on and the one I was old enough to use and understand properly. Spent many hours in Zoo Tycoon, Age of Empires 2, Halo, and Midnight Club 2 on that thing.

[PenguinDude]

I used apple before it was cool.

[Opcode]

I honestly cannot remember, but it had an i386 in it.

[killcomic]

ZX Spectrum with an AMAZING 48k of on-board memory! 

[noyster]

Old Gateway with Win 95 

[Rev_W.T.Cracker]

Dell 4300......Oh Ya with the HARMON KARDON Speakers
