My first PC had a 40meg HD. my friends had 10 meg or NONE. They all laughed at me asking what I would ever due with 40 meg

Sittin' in the elementary school library going to whitehouse.com, like a boss.

 

Bwahahaha I remember when that was a porn site. I think first time I can remember using the internet was 7th grade, and we too did the whitehouse.com thing and AOL instant messenger was serious business

My first PC was a 1984 IBM PC Jr that my brother had with DUAL 360k floppy drives. Booted up to DOS 2.1 in 5 minutes. Ran Telex through the 12000 baud modem. Later I upgraded to a 14.4 jumping on Multi-line BBS's such as Heartland and Computrek.

Hmm if you count my first computer experience it was when I was 3 but I didn't remember. It was on a commodore 64 that ironically my grandfather gave me when I was much older. I can't believe a computer that old still works but it still runs great. It has its own room in my basement. I do remember when I was 5 years old and used a 300 baud modem to connect to a BBS and check the weather. Shit was epic. I even played Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles on that computer. It was just like the NES version that everyone played but it sucked 100 times harder. No joke.

Anyone remember California games on the Apple II?

 

First game I played on my IBM PC Jr was Kings Quest 1.

[DaddyBuiltRacing]

First game I can remember playing on a computer would be The Oregon Trail

I was rocking my Packard Bell with a Pentium 75mhz cpu, and a "HUGE" 1gb HDD and 16mb of EDO memory. I never thought i'd ever run out of hdd space. I also remember messing around and ripping a cd to mp3s and wonder why would anyone want to do this.?

 

Just pulled a machine identical to those specs out of someones basement. They wanted to know if it was worth anything.

 

:dumb:

 

 

Was cool though that it could be set up as a home phone and answering machine as well.

Anyone remember California games on the Apple II?

 

Oh hell yeah, except I used to play it on a real computer. Hacky Sack ftw!

 

Commander Keen and Duke Nukem I used to play like crazy.

I was getting laid in 1995. Alot. Ah, the good ol days.

 

Yeah, me too. Those were good times.

[Maro]

damn... I was using Telnet on the internet... in college... in 1993.

 

Hell.... I was using Telnet in 1991-1992.

We even played one of the earliest online games, X-trek, back in 1992 with people @ Purdue, CSU, and Berkley.

LOLS!!!! In 1996 Hilliard High School was selected to participate in Time Warner's Beta of "road runner". I was one of the selected students to participate. 300MB down / 300mb up. Those were the days! Before that... we were spiffing Credit Card Numbers via generators on AOL

First computer experience was commodore 64, Oregon trail was the coolest thing ever. I still remember waiting each week for a new atari 2600 game to come in the mail. I too remember thinking that the free aol disks you could get at the grocery store checkout lines was the coolest thing ever. The sad thing is I still go into customers homes from time to time that are running windows 98 and using the free aol disks.
