Apple II (in 1980).

I don't know the name of it or anything, I just remember the coolest program ever that it had on it where you could create your own dinosaurs and then print a picture of it with this really cheap printer I had. It was probably around 8-9 years ago....Yeah I'm 17 too. No need for the young jokes CORRIE.

My primary computer line: 386/16 > 486/25 > Pentium/200 (still have the parts) > Pentium III/933 (still in use in the house) > Pentium 4/2.6 (current, has caught fire yet keeps ticking)

I project the next computer I buy (and build) will be around $2000 because I'll spend around $500 on a dual-core AMD processor (their dual-core architecture is so much better than Intel's because of the dedicated intercore bus instead of relying on the FSB) and $800 on two video cards for SLI/CrossFire. I'd also probably get 4 GB of RAM just to start.

First computer? hmmm

[high]* peterska2 thinks hard
[/high]

ah ha!

That would be an Atari 2600,

then theirs been:
  • a comondore 64,
  • an Atari 520 ST (did all my school work and coursework on that which was fun as some of it needed columns and stuff and you had to define them manually for practially each line as you went along),
  • some crap from Time running a P2 (win 95),
  • another one from Time running a P3 (win 98) (this one blew up),
  • a build it yourself jobby running win 2k with an AMD Athlon XP,
  • a temporary lappy (Advent something or other, P4 processor, win xp),
  • my new shiny PC I got yesterday Which is a compaq 1905 with an AMD Processor (I don't like Intels).

Planned new PC for Autumn 2006/Spring 2007

AMD dual-core
1.2TB HDD
4GB RAM
?400 worth of sound
?400 worh of graphics
32" TFT monitor
All software as professional versions (Can't be doing with home editions, they are usless)

Price = approx ?3k



Thinking about it, I first got interested in programming back at the ripe old ae of 12 on the Atari ST (520 not 1024) and used a programme called BASIC to write silly little scripts that did boxes and made beeps when you clicked things. Gosh that's a long time ago!

Some really old apple...

KTBleeding 04-14-2006 04:12 PM

Packard Bell...

Uh, let's see.
16mb memory
133 mhz processor
1gb hard drive..

Yeah, I had that thing up until about five years ago. I started doing websites on it.. haha. What a pain.
