My Very first ever computer when I was like 5....

[Guest Johnny5g]

My first computer I got was when I was 6 it was some dell computer.

[Ceatra]

Dell Dimension 3000, and I still have it today... (not as my main machine)

-dell-

This was not the first computer that I used, but it is the first computer that was my personal computer.

I had used computers at school and other places like that before I got this one.

It was some Compaq PC

What is love? Baby don't hurt me. Don't hurt me. No more.

My entire computer history:

• Some Pentium 1 computer my brother had built for me
• Some Pentium 2 Gateway (with a 12gb HDD)
• Athlon 64 3000+ (939) with some Nvidia GPU (that ultimately died and I replaced with an X1950 Pro)
• Eventually I got my first laptop -- 15" Macbook Pro (2007) (which I used side by side with my 64 3000+ pc) 
• I replaced my desktop with an XPS 15 L501x (i7-840qm + GT435m -- still didn't know much about computers...I knew a lot about computers but not a lot about GPUs other than that 'more vram is good') 
• I replaced the MBP, 7 years later, with a 15" rMBP
• and then a year later I replaced the XPS 15 with my current build (4690k+GTX780)

It's been a good run so far...

I had a pre-built Acer to get ready for college.

 

Then a couple of years later... I took it apart and started building my PC using the same case. :lol:

[CJN221]

Gateway DX 4860. It had an Intel i5-2320, 8GB RAM, 1TB HDD (Which I still have), Nvidia GTX 210

[XDfuzion]

Windows Vista Home Premium 

AMD Athlon 64x2 5200+

2.00GB of DDR2 

VisionTek Radeon HD 2400 Pro AGP

The first computer I ever used was my dad's old Pentium 4 windows xp tower. (BTW:my first post)

[Tawkin]

The first real computer i sat in front of was the old Pet 2001

 

 

The first computer i owned my self was a Lambda 8300, ZX-81 clone

 

The Computer i first started programming on was on the RC Piccoline / Comet. The programming language was Comal-80 - a mix between Pascal and Basic.

 

Then came the C64 / C128 / Amiga 500 before it all turned PC

[robertw1995]

Some custom built thing, i remember it ran Windows ME, but i was too young to remember the specs never mind understand what they meant.

[dominicskywalker]

My first computer was a Dell Latitude CPi, it was a used laptop from 1998 with Win xp on it (6 GB hard drive 128 MB ram, and a Pentium 2 possessor)  and used that for years from my 10th birthday until it had a hard drive failure 5 years later. My first desktop computer is the Dell insperon 530 and i still use that today (with hardware improvements) 

[lefthanded_legend]

I just built it a few days ago actually (Specs in sig). I hope to get some AIO cooler when my birthday comes around so I can overclock my CPU

[Vinoria]

Pentium 4 1.2 GHz, 128MB RAM, TNT2 32MB.

 

I finished GTA Vice City on that. It's nearly not playable, most time you have to look to the sky to get a better fps.

 

Even for games like Red Alert 2 and Project I.G.I would not run smoothly. But it's my first build...

[cyphon21]

Not sure if it's been posted, but this was my actual first computer. I actually almost teared when I gave it away to the goodwill

 

[kaylexmorgana]

uh when I was like 12 I got this super shitty pc with a pirated version of xp which had the shittiest hardware ever and was loud as hell and couldn't even play halo ONE.

 

first time getting a pc so I of course had no idea what was viruses or not so I downloaded tons of shit and it took about 20 minutes to start up because it was all filled with porn and shit

[LamboLaddy]

My mom got a really nice computer from her boyfriend back when I was seven or eight, I didn't know anything about it other than it was pretty damn near top notch and custom built, and I played Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 3 for daaaaays on end.

[stitchlips]

My first desktop that I ever bought with my own money was a Dell Inspiron 620 and it was a huge let down from day one. I had a Toshiba Satellite laptop before that (don't recall the exact specs) that was much more beloved to me because it was the first computer that I had entirely to myself.

[burnttoastnice]

eMachines 420, 256MB RAM, Intel Celeron 2.6GHz single-core. Still have the mobo but threw the case out. Works perfectly with no thermal paste

[Guest]

Some old Win7 ASUS Netbook lmao 

[Ivelin]

!!! DAEWOO VALIANCE!!! CT-515 DF. Designed for Win 95. Still working, I remember playing Wolfenstein 3D and some F1 game on it.

The first computer, which I bought is the f*%+%*g thinkpad edge 15, which can't play nfs carbon normally and HP 2010 gets input lag. Not to mention temperatures(87/50 cpu/hdd) and hdd eating, I will have to buy 3rd hdd in less than 5 years, while the hitachi with a cheap psu(in the pc that's replaced the daewoo, it's 8 years old) is still working.

Edit: no you can't google it but I have uploaded some pictures in the retro computer thread.
