First Computer I had that actually belonged to me was a System 7. It's pretty neat. I loved it. I still have it, and it still works. I also had a Windows 95 Computer. I remember playing Age of Empires 1 on it for hours.

My dad would take me and my brother to his office in the weekends to play Roadrash there. Ah, it was a real fun game to play.

Fuck Yeah RoadRash!

Mine was an ACER, which I hated because it came apart easily and way too quickly.

A Frankenstein Gateway running Windows 95, with internet access and dinosaur decals shellacked to the outer cover. I was the envy of every other 7-year-old I knew.


I make stuff like this and this with these people. And sometimes I make cute games too.

I do believe my first was MS-DOS, or Microsoft DOS
Pretty early tho, so I can't remember much

It was a pretty crappy one. If I remember correctly, it couldn't even rung CS 1.6 on lowest settings.

That depends on what you mean by computer, the first thing that I ever got was an Apple Newton. However, if that's not what would be classified as a computer, I'd probably say an HP computer with Windows 98. They both broke by 2007.

I had one of those tan colored Macintosh computers. The screen was shades of grey, and I played a lot of Dark Castle. Times have changed, indeed.

Some shitty gateway with like a 1.5g harddrive lol. I would kick it when it was loading slowly and sometimes it'd work lol.

The first computer I used was a Windows 98 computer with a 1GHz pentium 3 processor, 512mb of RAM (which we upgraded to 1 gig i believe), and some Nvidia Geforce graphics card that i don't know the name of. The first computer i actually owned was a Toshiba laptop, which broke.

Now i'm using an HP that i bought and i can't say i'm too disappointed overall.

My first computer experience was a 95 Gateway my parents purchased. We had games such as Descent, Wolfenstein, etc

I remember my first online experience, I was looking up a guide for Pokemon Red lmao I also found a chat room and unspeakable things were said.

My mom didn't buy a computer until I was around eight. It was a Gateway with Windows XP installed, although I don't remember any other details. It was practically worthless - slow as hell from the day we got it.

It was a microsoft computer, with wndows 2000. I never really did much with it except played around with the pinball game and draw video games in mspaint.

mspaint story's a really silly one.

When I was 10 my dad got me this old laptop with a trackball attached that couldn't go on the net and required constant power from the wall. It ran Windows 3.0. Note this was back in '04 when XP was on the scene. The thing broke within 2 months, but I loved that piece of crap.

Oooh, way back in the day, when I was around 7, I had a crappy Windows XP computer that crashed at least twice a week, that stopped working and I never got a new one, we had another one used by everyone, so I just used that, only 2 years ago it got a Blue Screen and stopped working, so I built one (with the help of a computer expert of course) and that's now my current one.

Oh, and I got a laptop for my birthday this year, it runs XP, I'm using it to reply to this thread.


just call me "Jay", thanks.

ask me questions i guess
