Your first computer was... - GoFuckYourself.com

Crazy Enough · 10-12-2012, 10:51 PM

My first computer was:

486
8 MB of RAM
14 inch color monitor
3 1⁄2-inch floppy disk
Microsoft Windows 3.1

I loved to play Prince of Persia.

In 1994 I was just a 7 yo kid.

Now it is your time!

Don't be shy... just tell us about your first computer!
I bet it was better than mine.

Atari ST - sold if fast after realizing computers sucked at the time, even the games were lame.

next computer was a 486 my dad got from his job - internet was just happening, i looked around, not much on the web and didn't come back to it until 2 years later, by that time there were some free porn sites around, some paysites too - i guess 1997.

sojproductions · 10-12-2012, 11:36 PM

Commodore 64c - 1541 5 1/2 floppy drive 300baud modem

AdultKing · 10-13-2012, 04:03 AM

I donated this to a guy who collects old computers, it was one of many old systems I owned.

This was built as a kit. It used the National Semiconductor SC/MP processor. Originally had 256 bytes of RAM. You loaded machine code programs in one step at a time, flicked run and ran your program. I built this in 1977 when I was 10 with the help of my dad.

I had a very similar kit computer of the same era based on the Signetics 2650 processor. It had a whopping 1 kilobyte of RAM and a 4 x 1 kilobyte ROMS. When it was fully built out it had a Kansas City cassette interface, RS-232 paper tape punch and reader and connected to a Frieden Teleprinter where I was able to enter programs on an interface much like a typewriter into the 3.5 kilobyte Tiny Basic that I could load from paper tape.

suesheboy · 10-13-2012, 04:05 AM

First computer system I worked on DecSystem 10, then IBM 36.

Bill8 · 10-13-2012, 04:56 AM

first year c64 with that cheesey tape drive. eventually tricked it out with everything, two 5.25s, 1200 modem, etc.

then a 286 with a ten meg hard drive, which seemed so revolutionary.

rogueteens · 10-13-2012, 05:10 AM

Mattel Aquarius. I think i was the only person in the UK to own one!

My first PC was an Amstrad 1512 with an 8086 processor(!) with the upgrade of a hard drive on a card in the expansion port!

first real pc, an apricot 286 with two floppy drives and 720kb of mem for the whopping price of 5.000 dollars

SilentKnight · 10-13-2012, 05:56 AM

In the late 80s we had:

PC-XT (clone) with 56k RAM, 20mB harddrive, dual 5.25 floppy drives, monochrome monitor (later upgraded with a Sperry 4-color CGI monitor).

It had a TURBO button!

DOS machine - never saw Windows.

Went through the typical modem upgrade game with it - starting with a 1200baud Zoltrix, then a 2400, and eventually a 14.4k USRobotics sportster.

Upgraded that system to a 486-DX (forget the specs) - but I recall the monitor was a VGA. Added an HP Colorado Travan tape drive to that system at the time.
