Your first geek present?

[StardogChampion]

What was the first "geeky" present you've recieved for either christmas or your birthday?

My first was a GF4 ti4600 when they were first released. I was officially a geek when I unwrapped that in the morning... a sad yet happy day. :farmer:

 

[Adabiviak]

The memory expansion for the Commodore VIC-20. 3 KB baby!

 

[xLostx]

figurines of captain kirk and spock...

lol jk, I can't really remember what my first geek present was, my happiest was getting a NES when I was six.

 

[StardogChampion]

Luckily I had a big bro who could get all those as his presents, mwahaha. But games consoles aren't all that geeky anymore. Although anything pre-PS1 I guess can be classed as pretty geeky, especially a Commodore...

"Back in my day, we didn't have hard drives. We wrote our own games from scratch in BASIC and when you turned the computer off, it was gone! And we liked it!"

- a la 'grumpy old man' from SNL.

 

[The Mullinator]

Wing Commander 1 when I was 2 for christmas. Also the NES the same year as a present to keep me happy since my brother was born, my parents needed a way to keep me occupied while they tended to my new born brother. It worked like a charm.

 

[Krynn72]

A computer. Only dissasembled because they knew I liked to build them.

 

[Shakermaker]

A Pong console when I was 5. That means I have been a geek for the last 27 years. *sobs*

A computer?

[CyberPitz]

Chrono Trigger for my Birthday.

 

[OCybrManO]

Well, shortly after I was born I got an NES. Does that count?

I've been exposed to Nintendo games, literally, my entire life. I guess that explains why I'm such a Nintendo fanboy.

My "friend" (****ing psycho bitch) gave me some dragon snow globe thingy because she thought i was into that stuff. So i smashed her in the face with it and it smashed. I then picked up the shards of glass that had scattered all over the floor and proceeded to make her eat them. I then told her she had it coming and made her put her burkha back on. Bitch
