My family was given an old Windows computer back in like 1999. Had some DOS-based OS, but couldn't remember exactly which build. Ran Pokemon Blue and Tiger Woods Golf just fine though. |
My first PC was a 386. I remember when I upgraded to a 486 100mhz, the TURBO button would make my apps go nuts. :fuckthatshit: But I think the first modern glory of computer was the arrival of 3DFX voodoo. I still have my dual monster lying around somewhere. :D |
3DFX voodoo 3 with the green box, the blue face/box was so 1999 :P lol |
I had the 486pc, it hit top speed of 33mhz, with the built-in TURBO button, it was boosted to 66mhz!!! modem was 14.4k and it ran DOS and windows 3.11 for worrkgroups FAST.... |
First family computer was a Commodore 64. Still have the computer somewhere and the monitor is still being used as a TV in our gas station. I still remember load *.* . Favorite game was Boulderdsh. Second computer was a 486 DX with 105 of hard drive space. Bought a program from someone from the schools computer club called hard drive doubler. It compressed all the files on the computer and uncompressed them as needed. Did not work and almost messed up the whole computer. Got in big shit with my dad and brother. Third computer was a Pentium 133 from Campus computers Victoria. Had 1 gig of HD space. That was 10 times more space than the last computer. I thought I would never run out of space lol. Also came with 40 3.5 inch floppy disks. didn't know what they were for until it crashed. I was supposed to make an OS recovery disk using all 40 disks. Started messing with the Bios and messed up the HD. Got in big shit again with my brother and dad but was able to fix it. My first computer that I bought myself was a Pentium 333 form ATIC computers. Bought a Viewsonc 15 inch monitor from Costco for it. Ended up upgrading the HD and video card. That was my baby back in the day. |

The C64 was my 2nd computer. My dad purchased it at K-mart, in Coquitlam. I had to beg him a long time for it. (The first was a Vic20 with the tape drive). A lot of friends had it, so we swapped a lot of games. My parents still have both Commodore systems in their basement, plus all the accessories and stacks of floppy disks. |
This reminds me of the movie Hackers and how their hacking and doing shit at blazing speed which was pretty funny. I don't remember the specs of my first PC but I will always remember floppy discs, DOS, cd *insert command*. The good ol days |
my first computer (owned by me, not family computer) was a 486dx 33.. i learned so much from that thing.... duke nuken 3d, doom and its awesome aliens mod... tie fighter.... and porn... glorious porn. Each picture took like 30 seconds to load sometimes upto a minute, but i waited every second :joy: |
1984 - Apple 2e or something along the lines, with a green monitor and floppy drive. |
Man, I remember my parents upgrading our ram a whole 64Mb from 128Mb to 192Mb in the millennium. Sadly, I continued to use it until I bought a laptop in 2008 :alone: |
i remember my family's first computer, it didn't have a cd drive it was dos based and it took upwards to 15 floppy drives to install a single game lol |
Haha, I remember our first computer only ran at 25mhz, with a "turbo" button that boosted it to 33mhz :lol |
Anyone here use QEMM to do their memory management? I hated that it didn't work well with Windows. |
I had QEMM and Stacker. I also had Drivespace/Doublespace on at one point too. |
