The first computer I ever used

[Iain]

I started off on a C64, then onto a 500+, then onto a 200Mhz PC, now on my 2Ghz PC.

[busdude]

The First computer i ever saw was an Apple IIe that was wheeled into my second grade classroom. Later on in elementary school we had an Apple II lab where they were all networked. The first computer i ever owned was an old IBM Clone 286. That lasted about a week before it died completely and i got my Packard Bell 486 the following X-mas. As a side note, i have one of the old 5.25 floppy drives from that 286 in my current computer - an AMD Athalon 1.2 with 786mb ram and Win2k. I bet that floppy drive never thought it would live to see the day... :rofl:

My first computer was Intel Pentium II 450MHz started using @ skool once a week and after classes and then my second was the one i'm using right now and i've never had another PC

Oh, and on the subject, the first computer I ever used was an Apple 2E.

My first was a Micro-Dot branded 286, with DOS 6.2. After about a year (I think) we upgraded it to a 386 with a colour screen (the old one was green mono) and Windows 3.1.

Ahh, I remember those old apps - Chuck Yeager's Air Combat, PFS First Choice, Dosshell, BoA (mouse game - mmm - must go download from siomewhere...). And I still remember all the commands! Well, most.

[ergo:kris]

My first was a good ol' commodore 64, having to put the game into the tape deck and WAIT for half an hour for the game to load, then you would only play it 10 minutes then change it.

After that I had an Amiga 600, a spectacle of graphics and sound :woot: . I was a little dissapointed as a friend of mine had a 1200....WITH A HARDRIVE!! ahhh those where the days...

[dougkinzinger]

A Tandy 1000 SX. EGA graphics, 40MB hard drive, 286 upgraded daughterboard, Tandy sound.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles was cool on it.

Man! that is what I played in school Primary school Sweet! The first ever proper comp I remember playing was...... actually don't remember lol. But I know it was 1 with funny wee turning things and looked as if it was playing pong. First proper comp I played was a Amstrad 464. SWEET! And I can remember destroying 2 Atari ST Floppy Disk Drives! lol.

[deepblue39]

The first computer I ever used was a Texas Inst. 8088 processor that I hand wired with alligator clips to an eight digit LED readout....no bells and whistles on that one. High school days, seems like 500 years ago....

First computer I used was an RML380Z ...

It had a 2mhz processor, a whopping 16k of RAM, a massive 40x24x2 resolution (80x24x2 hi-res :)), and used single sided 5.25'' floppies ...

My fondest memory of these was playing the Level 9 Adventure Games, all displayed in super high resolution text :)

[GotoLamia]

My First was an Apple II, *remineses about blaying digdug* but my first REAL computer was a Gateway, it was a 386, 75 MHZ if i am not mistaking 8mb of ram, a 2gb hardrive, and windows 3.1, with i believe Aol 4.0 with a 14K Dial up modem :) Thows were the days back when i was 10.

Chill out, be groovy,

My first computer was an Apple 2 with 32K of memory. I paid $100 to upgrade it to 48K of memory. I remember my first 2 games I played on that system were Ultima 1 and Wizardry 1. Man has technology come a long way since then!
