What was your first computer?

[Fausty82]

I had a Commodore 64 with a cassette tape deck, 13" b/w tv for a monitor and a 300 baud modem. I was rockin' it in 1983.

I, too, had a Commodore 64 with a tape deck, but I had one of those phosphorous monitors or whatever the heck they were called back then. I thought I was Mr. Big Stuff for being able to display colors on the monitor. Those were the days.

Got through college with an AppleIIc - 300 baud modem... those were the days.

This was the first computer that I ever bought with my hard earned money. But I remember something like the Timex Sinclair as my first computer, it's been a long long time ago in a galaxy far far away.

Mine was a 486 DX 33mhz running Windows 3.1 and DOS that my parents bought me shortly after I started high school. I remember my friends being envious cause most of them has 286 or 386 based PCs at the time.

Ahh the good ol' days when going online meant connecting to a BBS via dial up on a 2400 baud modem

It was a Gateway, but i don't even remember the model number. Got the MacBook Pro after that, and never looked back.

Wow, when I was a kid my mom had a leading edge...god that thing was so bland compared to the models out today. It took forever to do anything!!

My Dad has been a gamer since the 70's. I believe our first computer was an Atari 400..

 

[ctt1wbw]

I had an Atari 400 then upgraded to Atari 800, if you could call that an upgrade! LMAO

 

[lordpuppy]

First computer i used was my father's Atari 130XE, first I owned myself was my beloved Commodore 64

My first was an original Macintosh (128K). For a very short time I felt like a truly special snowflake considering we only had TRS-80s and DECmates at school. It's all so funny in hindsight.

 

[iChloe]

The only thing I remember about my first computer is the fact that it was massive, you couldn't really move it and extreeeeemely slow! :straight-face:

 

[xamdam]

My moms PC was my first ever to use in a house hold environment and that was an old Celeron not a Celeron 2 or 3, but a old Celeron... lmao the good old days.

But before all of that in school around 1986 they used an apple computer with the BIG B floppy disks for use to see the future basically and also prior to that was the OLD commodore 64.

 

[cjordan93]

The first computer we had in our house looked similar to this...

Top of the line in its day! It had a CD-ROM drive, floppy drive, and the hot new thing at the time, a ZIP drive!

 

[cardfan]

Texas Instruments TI994A or something like that.

 

[neurodave]

I found an old Windows 95 PC in the garbage in the mid-90s. It weighed a ton, and my frail little ~100lb body (I was 10 years old) had such a miserably time walking it home. But alas, I got it home, and I spent my time tinkering with it for years. I broke it, fixed it, broke it again, and fixed it once more. Good memories!

 

[RobertJones]

I just remember its Sony, forget its specification

 

[diesteldorf]

Commodore 64 and still play the games on emulators to this day.
