My first was an Apple IIe, then i got a 386.
|
Well, I'm 24 and my first 'rig' was an Atari 65XE, sorta like the C64 but from Atari and didn't have alot of upgrades and I learned how to program BASIC on it. And I still have it.
first 'real' computer was a 286 with 2 hds, win3.1 1mb ram 3.5 5.25 and 1200 baud modem....I could be wrong about the 286 and it could have been a 3 but I'm almost positive about the 2, and I still have it. The main HD head crashed so it is about useless now. First computer I bought, PB 486dx2 66mhz 4mb ram 14.4k baud modem windows 3.1 2X CD-rom 15" monitor....those were the days.... |
a tandy :D, all i did was BASIC, and play digger
|
Learned basic on a C64.
|
Ahh the good old apple ][ way back in grade school. I would say I was probably 8 or so. currently I'm 21.
|
My first was a BBC Microcomputer, with 32Kb (later upgraded to 48k, then even 80k!) It ran at about 1Mhz I think (later 2Mhz). However, the games were awesome and I still play Elite! Taught me a fair bit about (bad) programming - trying to write in 6502 assembler when you only have 3 registers and only one of them is any use!
|
Did aynone not own a speccy. I'm 2.......3. First PC was a spectrum 48k solid plastic keys but i had a friend with the rubber ones. That had to be back in the early 80's. Best game was viking raiders by far. Multiplayer woo hooo.
|
we used trash 80s in grade school, commodore 64s in jr. high.
the first machine i owned was an original macintosh. the inside of the case was signed by the cupertino crew. wish i had known enough to hold onto it. |
1982, Started with a C64 with the 1541 and a cassette tape drive too..... good times... good times....
26 years old.... |
Tandy 1000SL, 384 KB RAM (upgraded it to 640KB), no hard drive, OS = some crappy precursor to a full-blown Windows OS.
Radio Shack sucks, but at least I learned DOS commands. |
hah my first computer was like 5 months ago, amd athalon xp 2100+. 512 ddr pc 2700 ram, g4ti4200 and 40 go 7,200 rpms harddrive....good enuff for me!
|
Comadore 64, and I still have it, though minus the monitor, and it has been somewhat patched up and bandaged. But it still works perfectly, just have to use the RF adapter to connect to a TV
|
Macintosh Classic around 1990. I think it was around $4000 or so.
20 MB Hard drive, 4 MB of ram (Maxed out), 9 inch Black and White (Not gray scale) monitor, 2400 baud Modem (Fax send and receive). The modem was around $400. |
19 this May past, born in 1984, the first computer that I owned was the Power Macintosh 6100/60, bought and opened on June 23, 1994. Coincidence that I was born the Year of the Macintosh?
|
The first computer i used was a 486/66, the first computer i built was a 150 Pentium 1 with a black and white monitor and a 500MB Hard drive.
|
I'm about to turn 25 and my first personal (not family) computer was an Amiga 1200 and that was back in 1993/93 I think...I still miss amigas :(
|
The first CPU that was actually mine was the old 386 IBM my parents were gonna throw away once they bought a new 133 pentium. I think it had 1 or 2 mb ram, and had less than 100 mb HD. Ran at a blazing 33 mhz, when the "turbo" button was pushed in! kinda funny, cause now i have a computer that runs almost 85 times faster processor wise.
I am 18, almost 19 |
i'm 22, and my first computer was a texas instruments something or other, circa 1986. i remember being so excited the first time i used BASIC to play a scale. heh.
|
I'm 32 and had a Sinclair ZX Spectrum in 1982 with a wopping 16k later upgraded to 48k. It used to be the must have toy when I was a kid, that was until the C64 came into being. Brings back memorys of copying games with my mates tape to tape, Ah the good old days.
|
The first system I used was a C-64 back in '83/'84 or so - I particurlaly remember Chopper.
|
1986 IBM 286...10 MB hard drive, 10 mhz processor, orange monochrome monitor, oh yeah...plus the old skool all steel case that weighed 50lbs. I'm using the keyboard to type this message, an IBM "clicky" Model M (aka the One Keyboard)...had to slap a PS/2 adapter on it many many years ago when they phased out the old AT ports. I'll never give it up, it'll go to the grave with me...
|
It was either a Tandy MC-10 or a Sinclair (the black one with the membrane 'board).
They boath had a 16k expansion. Wow! |
Commodore 64, which I still have and a ton of cracked games I got in college. Still fire it up every blue moon..
|
Another one that was "de-virginized" by a Timex Sinclair 1000. It was '82 and I was twelve. I bought it at a yard sale for like five bucks, and I felt like I had just bought something from Star Wars. :) I honestly thought that I would be the only one posting about the Timex Sinclair 1000.
|
I'm 23 now, but my first computer was a Texas Instruments TI-99/4A.
ROM-encoded BASIC! Whoo-hoo! |
First computer I remember using was the amazing Apple IIe to play Oregon Trail during elementary...First computer I owned was a Tandy 386...couldn't do anything on it until I learned the damn DOS commands.. then an Acer 486 with Windows 3.1...btw I'm 18
|
first computer = packard bell 486. 66 Mhtz. oh yeah.
|
I'm 20 and my first computer was a Tandy 1000. I can't really remember what year it was but I couldn't have been older than 8 or 9, I would guess.
|
Amstrad 128 . . . . man it had a disk drive and everything . . woo hoo . . . mustabeen in mid eighties . . . . its amazing what years of drug abuse does to one's mind, can't remember much from that period . . .

1987 - Apple IIe, shortly replaced by a PC-XT clone.
Yeah i rocked the 512k dual floppy hercules system for a long ass time :D My experiences with the C64 and 128 came in the early 90's. I used to code basic like a madman. |
THe first computer I used was a mainframe Uni of Sheffield (UK) to play Star Trek. (Had to load using punch cards) 1978ish

I'm 25 and my first computer was a "Fountain" 286. 20 meg HD, 8 megs of ram, some crazy trident video card and DOS 5. I got it around 1993. Carmen Sandiego never looked better.
|

>sigh< those were the days |
I got my first computer in 1985 i think. It was a tandy 3 from radioshack. I cant remember the specs on it. It had some pretty cool games for back then though. The first good computer I bought was in 1995. It was a packard bell pentium 166 with 24 megs of ram and the 12 gig hard drive and ran windows 95. It only set me back about $2,500 too, lol.
|
It was an imac, don't hurt me

Packard Bell 486 in 1992. It was great, megarace was the best game ever.
|
