Windows 3.1 system. Fucked if I remember exactly what it was.

You 2 are young, I worked with DOS 2.10 and had to type Copy, Dir, Move and Rename.

Programmed with PUSH, POP, MOV AND JMP.

Found a picture of it.



I was like 15 when I bought it, specifically for the games. Then my parents said "you're not playing games on it, you're going to use it to learn". Which essentially, because I had no goddamn idea what to do with it at all except for gaming, turned it into a dust-gatherer on my desk until I got tired of looking at it. I reboxed it, put it in the basement, and forgot it existed until mom sold the house and I had to throw it out with all the other junk. $400 (in 1983 currency to boot) wasted, with nothing to show for it at all except for a memory of youthful stupidity that can be compressed into just another "Fucking LOL!" moment.

Good God, I've been such a stupid creature for so very long.

Oh snap that was my second computer, I loved pole position.



This was my first Mac and I still have it today in mint condition.

TRS-80 Model III. 2MhZ Zilog Z-80 and a whopping 16k RAM, 8 k of which I installed myself!

My second was an Osborne 'portable'. If you call 30 pounds of steel 'portable'.

Third was a Commodore PET. I like the ones with built in screens.

I think the best I had so far was a Commodore Amiga Video Toaster. Amped up on a 40MHz 68040 processor, and 16mb of RAM! It rrrreallly flew.

I was blessed with a father who was an Exec at Xerox...we had one of the original x86 systems and then ventured through the ranks of DOS. Xerox was running a GUI system (Xerox Alto & Xerox 8010 Star Information System) in the mid-80's that was so cool. I remember how awesome it was to print to a printer in another room and click actual icons!

I also remember when 4MB of RAM was $1200!

I love it when I use the CMD prompt now....people look at you like a dinosaur.
