Check out the deal on the 486! Only $3795!! 4 mb of RAM and a 330 mb hard drive!!

I see systems like this in the garbage at least once a month.

What are you doing going through garbage?

i gotta eat sometimes!

memories!

good post

I remember.

Wow, that must have been like 1993.

4MB of RAM!!! WOAH!!!

I remember. But I also remember my dad getting an Atari computer when I was about 5 and we got our first Commodore 64 when I was 8 or 9. I really loved that C64.

The 486 comes with a 5.25 " drive! Alright!

Man, just think in 10 years we are going to look back on a Pentium4 with Hyperthreading + 3Ghz + 800Mhz FSB + 7200 RPM 200 Gig hard drive +21" Flat Panel with the same amazement and laughter.

Hard to fathom.

Heres a much better deal:

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh funny shiz:glugglug

bump for the morning/afternoon crew.

Go think about it.. 20mb harddrive..
If you'd use them as of now you'd need 20 of those disks in RAID0 only to store your freakin' pagefile.sys!

20MB is like.. nothing nowadays :)

I owned a computer store from 89-93... that Tandy price is out of control. I was building clone systems for half that, but even those prices seem ridiculous these days.

I still have a storage unit full of old pc parts. Fuckin' museum.

those days are LONG gone. :thumbsup

my first pc was a timex sinclair 1000

anybody remember those?

What? No CD burner? What a gyp.

back in the day. I remember when all the comps in our school were APPLE and they used those big 4.5 in floppy disks.

dan too expensive during that time :1orglaugh
