My very first computer was an 4.77MHz XT with 640kb of ram, a 2400 baud modem and an EGA video card with a VGA shades of grey monitor.
My very first self-assembled computer was a 486SX/25 with 4mb ram, TWO(!!) 40mb harddrives and a VESA VGA video card.
I quickly upgraded it to a 486DX2/66 and added another 4mb of ram.
Then I upgraded to a 486DX4/100 and a 210mb HDD.
Then I got a Am5x86/133, 2.5gb HDD and 24mb of ram.
I used that computer FOREVER.....
From there, I got a K6-2/300 and a WD Expert 18GB and a Creative Labs RivaTNT1.
Then I got into overclocking and upgraded to a K6-3/400 @ 450, 384mb ram..
I had that computer for about 3 years, until about 2 months ago.. when I got a Duron 850 @ 1GHz. Still have 384mb ram, still using the RivaTNT1..
But I have an 80gb, 60gb, 20gb and still using that old WD Expert 18gb drives, now.
Heh..When you lay it all out like that.. it seems strange. That's covering like 8 years.. heh.
