Commodore 64... really nothing memorable, slow and hard to use, , I remember when I got a dot matrix printer I thought I was the shizznit.

I erased all the dreadful memories that my first computer gave me. It was just a slow, unreliable machine.

You made me cry with your question man. Actually I don't know now its name. It's OS was windows 94/95. So old. It made me sad when you asked since although its not really that reliable, that was the first ever computer where I've learned my present skills now when it comes to computers. The start of everything with my computer. If I found where it was now I think I would even give it a proper burial or display it in my house having the description: "THE PC THAT STARTED IT ALL". T_T too bad were out of money at that time and we have new computers so we have to sell it. I'm so good at fixing and experimenting at computers now because of that first PC of mine.

My first computer was very slow, too. Around 32MB RAM, I think and running on Windows 98. It was horrible.

I dont remember the brand, IBM maybe...but it was a 386. It had the 5 1/4" floppy and windows 3.11 for workgroups. I remember I had Chip and Dale rescue rangers game for it.

I've got my first computer back in 1997 i think it's a pentium 1 machine 32mb ram 1 gb hd. I really love that computer, I was jumping all around when I first got it.
