You utter bastard. I was going to post 'owned you all' with that link, that was my first computer (1979 ). I then had a Tandy TRS-80, Vic 20, C64, Amiga, 486, pentium 2, etc etc

10 FOR A=1 TO 500
20 PRINT "OWNED"
30 NEXT A

Another good one we all love 48k Spectrum..didnt we all love that "modem esque" sound of loading games!?

 

[falconwind]

Commodore 64, baby.

 

[Bad^Hat]

My old school used to have an Acorn. The word processor used hi-res font, so if you typed relatively fast it'd take a few seconds for the text to catch up to the cursor

New Zealand Story ( )

Wassup star, Aoteroa represent, 2004, word to my homies.

I think my mum has that on the old dungary Kindy puter...

 

[johnnypoopoopant]

i remember using a 66 megaherts computer

 

[RRunner]

A little black box, u connected to the tv. Playing tennis (2 white bars, bouncing a ball). Then C64 (with a disc station, and some odd thing in the back, that made you able to only write $ to see the index of your disc), C128, Amiga (with the 1 MB extension), then finally a pc 4 MB of ram, and a WOOT WOOT speed of 16 Mhz (all though u could tune it down if it was to fast for you, to a WOOT WOOT speed of 8 Mhz). Then a 133 P1, 700 Thunder, to what i got today 3,0 GHZ P4. Find it hard to Imagine what my kids will be playing on, when they r my age.

I remember my first multiplayer session (RUC Roskilde universitets center), they had 8 nodes connected. We played 4 guys doom for 12 hours straight (i remember being totaly facked in da head for a week after that day). Shit i can go 24 hours straight today and not feel it, Ah those tolerence levels just keep going up, Now release HL2 GDV, i need my fix!!!!

 

[Brian Damage]

Me: Amiga 500+, back when I was a kid. It was the coolest computer around at the time... I've still got it :E . And I can still play most of the old games on it. Amigas are really tough computers.

My mum beats any of you guys so far, though. She was programming truck-sized mainframes in assembler with punchcards back in the Seventies...

New Zealand Story... every time I remember the original cheatcode to that game I crack up laughing...

Heheh... "Mother****ingkiwibastard"...

My dad worked with the first computers ever used by the state of california.

[AudioRage]

[Kristafon]

WHen my family got its first computer, it was the best at the market. 166 MzH, 16 MB RAM and 3 GB harddrive!!!!!

[Shippi]

[Foxtrot]

Apple 2 Es...

 

[Zuckerhutbomber]

Our first PC was a/an (<-what's right?) XT.
That was back in 1995. Well, yes we started having a PC quite late. The funny thing was, there wasn't even a mouse. :E
And when we got one, I just would start every program we had and look, in which one you could use it. :rolling:
The monitor was monochrome at first and then we got a monitor with colours. :O
There was also this cool game, I think it was called "Space Wars" spaceship against spaceship, you could switch gravity and a planet on.
Good times.

 

[wassup]

Apple II - man that thing had some sweet games - i should not have let my family throw it out a couple of years ago

 

[Marius]

Commodore 64 I think...

 

[DEATH eVADER]

A BBC computer, but I had the most fun with my 486DX/66 mainly because of Theme Park and Transport Tycoon as well as Duke Nukem 3D although Duke couldn't pass the 12/FPS mark

 

[firemachine69]

An old Macintosh, era 1986.

It got repeteadly bruised and abused.

 

[Phisionary]

386-SX, brand new. 14 inch screen, windows 3.1, dos 5.something. ran all the latest games, like Links, an amazing 3d golf game.

An early laptop, cica 1990. It belonged to a friends dad. was the size of a large briefcase. green-tinted (either 1 or 4 color display, can't remember), we played a game called 'helicopter' or something. flew around and stuff blew up, somthing like that.

I remember my uncle used to tell me how he bought RAM for his IBM PC. A massive 256KB upgrade.. a steal at $630. :O
what's almost as bad is reading the hardware ads from my first gaming mag, a Computer Gaming World from early '94.

ps. nice sig quote marius

 

[Raziaar]

I've used some of my dad's old old Apple computers, not sure the brands or how old they were though. The oldest I actually know of spefically that i've used is the commodore 64, and boy did I enjoy that so much!

Pool of Radiance for the Commodore 64 was so insanely fun! In fact, I downloaded a rom of it and am playing now, although its the NES version of the game.

 

[Sanius]

I belive my oldest pc was a 233 mhz, 128 megs of ram, and a 20 gig hdd. 9 months ago I upgraded from a 733 mhz p3 and 128 megs of ram.

Man..I miss the days on that old 233, me and my dad would play coop all the time on final doom

 

[Dalamari]
