That's just what I can remember from the top of my head. I also played a lot of consoles at a friends place, like all the Sega stuff, early PlayStations and Xbox. And I had a whole bunch of PCs but I can't possibly remember all the exact specs of the machines.

My PC gaming was spent through 6 desktops and 4 laptops.

Was trying to detail the PCs this time around but couldn't remember them all, think I had a 286 or 386 first...

Got around to it and tried to go down memory lane.

My family started with a i286 which was later upgraded to i386 and i486.
I remember having a Pentium i586 PC in my bedroom around the 90s.
Afterwards we made an AMD Athlon build that was used for some years.
We jumped back to Intel with Pentium Dual-Core.
Around this time we passed to buying pre-built PCs with HP, all are still active:
HP Pavilion Vista Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
HP Slimline ???
HP Pavilion ???

Graphics cards are a bit of a blur I do remember a red ATI card, but what impacted me more were the sound cards. We had Disney's Sound Source for example and playing Dick Tracy with that sounded awesome. Afterwards we obviously upgraded to Creative's Sound Blaster cards.

Now for the laptops:
First laptop was a beast, so heavy and big, a Sony Vaio PCG.
Got myself an Acer Aspire Timeline with a CULV dualcore, an actual portable PC.
The plastic design started to break and went with Lenovo Yoga 3 with a touchscreen.
And recently bought the Asus Zenbook Duo 14 to experience the dual screens.

Through this time also advised and bought some laptops for my family:
Asus Eee PC
HP Pavilion dm1z with AMD Fusion
2x Surface RT
Asus Zenbook Flip S
Surface Pro 6
Surface Book 3
