I'd have to ask my dad, but I'm pretty sure it was whatever came before a commodore 64 .. but then we also had a commodore 64 and an Amiga too .. and it just snowballed after that lol.

Can't remember what it was. But i do remember, that it had windows 95, was slower than a snail, and had little to no space in it. Good thing back then, games weren't so damn huge.

I didn't own a computer until I turned 13. I remember using the school computers though in the 80s. Playing Oregon Trail & Carmen Sandiego on the Apple computers.
Same here.

Family-Owned: Amstrad PC1512

Personally-Owned: BMOB (Built My Own Box) System; P4, 128mb, intel board. enermax case. pretty sweet, hated the front panel color-changing lights running the height on both sides of the front of the case.

a pentium 266 Ghz, 64 Meg RAM. A whopping 4 Gig hard drive LOL.

Oops, that should be Mhz. That would be impressive, wouldn't it? LOL

Hoijdxvh 04-28-2008 06:04 AM

first i ever owned myself was a 95, then a 98, then 2000, ME, XP
i havent gone over xp, even though i do own the vista ultimate, but im going to install that on my new machine , which im going to build in the next month or so

but gotta say, 95 was pretty sweet, alot better than ME, microsoft just screwed up with ME

It was my dad's old Gateway. I don't remember the specs. It had a monitor the size of a house, Windows 98 (I'm almost positive), and it ran Roller Coaster Tycoon perfect.

first computer you ever owned
 
i figure that some of us had some really old computers when we were younger so i got to thinking a thread for us to post our old computers would be pretty neat. heres mine.

http://oldcomputers.net/pics/ti-994a.jpg

its a Texas Instruments TI-994a. it was hooked up to our tv and my dad used it to write programs for where he worked at and he could "call in" to work via a modem. i used it to play games on. one particular game i used to play alot was a game called Parsec. it was a space game where you shot stuff. it got rather difficult to play in some levels. heres a link to specs and info about it:

Texas Instruments TI-99/4A - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

**edit**
heres an emulator i found that has Parsec and a bunch of other games!!!! Software from HarmlessLion.com!

My first puter was a 33 mhz slow ass bastard. Then I got a 133 mhz, then after I got sick of those I bought myself a badass computer, then a decent laptop.
