Your first computer
 

My first work computer was a 286 with a monochrome monitor and a 20mg hard drive.

My first home computer was a pentium 1 with windows 95 it had a 1.6 gig hard drive.
Computer, printer & desk cost me over $2500.

trs-80

Apple IIc, then a 286 with a 30MB HDD, and then a Pentium 75 with Windows 95

This baby! Cutting edge in 1982 when I was in college. http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...smilies/24.gifhttp://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...smilies/24.gif I can't find a picture of the model I worked with but it was enormous!

System 34

The System/34 5340 System Unit vaguely resembled a huge washer-dryer in appearance, and equally as noisy, due to its numerous internal cooling fans. It had several access doors on both sides, requiring several feet of clearance to open for servicing internal components. Inside, were swing-out assemblies where the circuit boards and memory cards were mounted. Overall, there was a tremendous amount of dead-air space inside. Weighing in at 700 pounds, this was not something you'd lug out to the car and take home for the weekend - though it did use standard household 220V power. Conventional wisdom called for the system to be kept in its own air-conditioned room. Conventional wisdom was, actually, very wise about this, since the system cost US$100,000-plus.


Ooops...first home computer 1993, put together by a friend by component. I don't remember much about it except that I was glad to get my next computer a Gateway. 586? Hmmmm...???

ZX-Spectrum 48K, how time have really gone fast?

dont remember much about mine except that it was a compaq

My parents used to have a Commodore 64 once upon a time.

It was a PC, it had a keyboard, mouse, and monitor... that's about all any of my computers.

I had a Packard Bell with windows 95 1st addition.....(piece of crap)

Not sure of the exact make and model but it ran Windows 98.

a TRS-80 W/ monchrome green screen and cassette tape drve
and a TI-994A also with tape drive, but it plugged into a tv

first computer I used was a desktop. We still have it, it's not that old. I have my own laptop now

exactly!

Pentium I, Windows 3.0, AOL before the version number came after it

1997 NEC with 4G hardrive.

The first computer that I owned was a Commodore 64.http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...es/biggrin.gif
The first microcomputer that I was professionally trained to repair was an Archives Systems microcomputer.
It had an 8 bit 8080 processor a whopping 64k of memory with a huge 40 meg hard drive and a Tandon quad density 780k 5 1/4 in floppy drive. and an integrated 13" green phosphor monochrome monitor. It ran CP/M as an operating system which was state of the art at the time.

I have worked on other archaic systems as well.http://www.discussworldissues.com/fo...ilies/wink.gif

Moonie had a Packaged Hell too.

They had a "three technician call" warranty and then you got another computer. My next was a preserio and I've had another compaq since.

I bought a compaq for home. It would not work right they swapped it for an HP and then and IBM, Eventually they traded me up to a Sony Pentium 2. The Sony was bullet proof but it ran Windows 98 instead of 95.

my first home computer was a Pentium II 500...i think that what it was called....lol god that was when i was like 12 years old i think...lol no colour just green lettering and it was dos.... i remember having to type in list or dir to get the program i wanted to use. lol

like yourself..........
