This motherfucker over here. My brother had it. It has the form of a tiny keyboard but it took a gigantic CASSETTE player.

Fan times. It took ages to load anything from a cassette tape. It was often faster to literally type the code yourself, yes.

Then he got an Amstrad 464 with cassette and then a 6128 with a disk. My first was a glorious Amiga 500.

I shit you not

Can't remember first computer I used, but the first I owned was a desktop Olivetti, circa 1998

no but shave his head and take 20kg off and he'd pass as my clone
who is he?

25mhz 486sx with 4 mb ram.

286 12mhz with 1mb RAM and 40mb HDD

Used DOS 5.0, couldn't run anything besides Dosshell for a GUI. Later got a 386SX 16mhz that couldn't run 386 protected mode in win 3.1 because it wasn't a 386DX.

pentium 1 60 Mhz
16 MB RAM, later upgraded to 32
127MB HDD, later upgraded to ~230MB then to 2GB
8x cdrom
gravis ultrasound ISA
800x600 monochrome monitor

I was about the same age as the pic OP posted, and it was a Commodore 64. I thought I was fucking leet.

Some stranger, here's a photo of his setup.

A 286

Mac Classic.

Didn't do much but play missile command.

wish I was kid, in the true golden age of tech in NA (as a rich kid)
Seeing monumental changes in sw and hw, getting the new stuff, crowded by transistors, and new shill, all day every day.


Instead I was living in a poor eu country, my mom bought a used P1 in the early 2000s, shit was like 1 month salary for her (~200 usd)
gayming with Skunny, packman, duke nukem, donkey kong, etc

pent1, 512mb hdd, some like 16mb ram still got it at home

I had one of these bad boys when I was a little kid

Mac IIci. I also had a beige Kensington Turbo Mouse, no scroll wheel or anything.

...

Compaq Presario with some AMD K6-2, 32mb of RAM and 4gb hard drive.

Dad later bought a 128mb stick and a GeForce mx440

Quake 3 played like a dream

Was born with a AMD blood in my veins
Had a AMD Duron; Shit burned and got an AMD Athlon XP later which I kept until 2012 when I got a better computer.

First I used was the family pc, beige Dell Dimension with a Pentium III, 256MB RAM, Riva TNT graphics card, 20GB Quantum Fireball hard drive running Windows ME

First I owned was my dads old laptop, Texas Instruments with like 16mb ram and a 100Mhz i486

I was 10 and we got a Packard Bell with Windows 95. The salesman told my parents that the 1.96GB hard drive was all we'd ever need.

ti99

First used was a 486, no clue what brand, 75mhz, 20mb hdd.

First pc that was actually mine was a Pentium 2, 351mhz, 4gb harddrive.

I had a newer version of that one. Aptiva L312140. had the optical built in.
Mine had a 56k modem, 4.2GB HD, and 95+

Pentium I 200Mhz MMX
32mb RAM
3Gb HDD
No dedicated video accelerator
It had a CD and floppy drive and ran Windows 95. It also came with POD and Mechwarrior 2.

Trs-80 iii. I was 12 in 1992 when we got this, so it was already about as old as I was. We got a 486 a couple of years later.

How am I supposed to remember? I was a goddamn toddler

brofist

sony vaio, bought by my parents
dont remember what model i was 14 or 15 years old maybe.

Early 2008 MacBook Pro 15"

Goosebumps above "Programming the Commodore 64". lol

Yep I'm old

You must be at least 18 years old to use this site

Mac LC

muh nigga. I had the beige model.
I only had hunt the wumpus on cartridge and I had no fucking idea how to play it. I think I also had like 2 other games from cassette. that I only played a couple times. I really didn't know what to do with the thing - barely used it.

But I ended up getting a PCjr shortly after.

heading to goodwill to get a keyboard be back in 25 minutes

Followed up by this bad motor scooter

Games I had for this
Parsec
Spelunker
Other shit I don't remember. Loved those two

Commodore VIC-20

>Sneak into computer room at night
>Forget to unplug speakers
>Windows 98 startup sound across the entire house
>Parents wake up

It had good speakers

I only used the PCjr for about a 2 years, until my dad gave me his PC Portable with 640K and a 20MB hard drive. I used that until 1993 when I went to college.

I did all my BBSing on it, I had an external CGA monitor hooked up to it also.

I even had an IBM Laser Printer E with 4MB on it. My printer had more memory than my computer.

Dell Dimension
Used to play some crappy demo CDs from flake boxes and ect.

The very first computer my family had was a hand me down apple 2 my aunt gave us sometime in the early 90's. I don't remember exactly when other than it was around Christmas. All we really did with it was play Carmen Sandiego or some crappy flight sim on it. After that dad stuck a deal with me and bought a Compaq Presariot after I took up raking all our leaves that fall (we had a lot of land and a lot of trees it was a pretty fair deal for all the time involved.) That was in 98 because I remember waiting a few months because we figured we might as well get the newest windows version available. I started building my own computers around 2003. I sold an old dirtbike I hadn't used for years for 1000 bucks and used the money to buy the parts.

some old (at the time) dos shitbox from a garage sale/flea market
got a few of them to start with

i don't remember any models or specs, naturally i had a very rough understanding about them to begin with, and my parents were not interested in them, nor did i have internet access until years later, so not much in the way of help

i just messed around with what they came with

they were probably 386-based

Acer Aspire SA90 Pentium D 512MB RAM Vista Home Basic
>inb4 you must be 18 to post here

Intel 8086. 640 kb ram. No hard drive. Floppy drive only. Had to code most of my games. The code came in magazines

an abacus.

why does he have tape on his mouth? why has no one asked this?

...

you didn't tape your mouth shut while playing AoE?

Some 286 clone with amber monitor

>t.oldfag

Pentium 4 2.2 GHz
256MB RAM
40GB HDD
Onboard 32MB Graphics

Used: Apple IIGS (I still have it and it works)

Owned: Dell XPS 410 Core 2 Duo from 2006. It's about 5 feet away from me recovering data from an HDD that failed CRC.

possibly a 486, with windows 95

hey age of empires

pentium 2 dell laptop, 100mhz cpu with windows 95, still works today

Brother is that you??

I am 18 though. I got that iMac as a hand me down from my dad when I was 10.

Pentium III 700MHz
128MB DDR
GeForce 256 32MB
3GB hard drive

Played so much Sims and Red Alert 2 on that bad boy.

A Dell laptop back in 2003~4. I don't know why didn't my fathers buy a PC until I was 10 or so.

My dad bloated it with eMule and porn and viruses and broke the screen, so he had to buy a TFT monitor which I still use as my second monitor now.

> SOLID STATE SOFTWARE

how is that even possible ?

An ancient PowerPC Mac, probably running Mac OS 4 or something like that.

Intel Pentium 166 MHz,
16 MB RAM
Some S3 2MB video card,
2GB HDD,
Win 95

floppy disks
or magnetic drives

presumably it's referring to software provided on solid state media (as opposed to floppies/tapes)

though that's pretty well just marketing words, cartridges were available on lots of home computers

Pentium III 700Mhz
128MB RAM
800X600 Display
20GB HDD

>evil pictograms
fuck it's been a long time since i've seen any of those

Amstrad 464 plus
4Mhz Z80A CPU
64KB RAM

My dad's IBM 3270 when I was 3 year old

>My dad's IBM 3270
That's just a terminal.

Didn't have anything until sometime in 96 or 97. It was a AMD P75, 8MB RAM (upgraded to 16 later) with a 1GB HDD. I was envious of my neighbour who also had the latest shit which was a Pentium II system at the time. Seeing Doom II run so silky smooth made me want my own PC for years.

Fucking gorgeous tho

Absolutely disgusting in beige

Mac Performa 6300CD

quantex mp5 something.

Coleco Adam. Loved the word/Typewriter...

Intel 486 DX4, 12mbs of ram. 400mb of hard drive. A Trident and a Sound Blaster AWE32. Prince of Persia, Doom, Duke Nukem, Commander Keen, and Monkey Island were the games I played at the time.

Commodore-64. Then about six months later an Apple 2e. Never touched the Commodore again after that.

Don't remember. I was two years old when they put me in front of the screen.

Mah nigga.

Kid is a qt and has excellent taste. Age of Empires was the shit. Looks oddly similar to a guy on grindr nearby...

Your point?

pentium 3 800mhz eb
128mb sdram 133mhz
gigabyte matx motherboard
riva tnt 2 32mb
17inch samsung crt
generic win98 kb/mouse
win98

That's my first computer and i was 12 at the time.

my familys first computer was pic related. i found it a few months back and made it into a retro gaming PC. the good memories keep on flowing

Commodore20>amiga500>pentium 100
Shit was cash

200Mhz Pentium with 128MB RAM, 4GB HDD, and CD-ROM back in 95.

I saw that too.

Apple //e. Exact same setup as this.
I think our first box of floppies was even those same pink sleeved Verbatim "Datalife" disks.

Pentium II, 64 MB RAM with Windows 98. I don't remember its clock freq.
After I installed 128 MB of RAM more, that thing suffered when I installed Windows XP on it. I modded it a lot.

The first thing I played on it was Warcraft II.

LC & LC2 were crippled by design and suffered with System 7, but with System 6.0.8 and the 12" monitor is comfy af.
