My first PC was a commodore 64, although that was my brothers rig.. had some pretty cool games, space harrier and atlantis.

My first IBM PC was a 486-66 mhz, 8MB RAM, 1GB HDD, which came with a turbo button.. yup you could reduce the speed of the processor to 33mhz!( why the hell would u even want that).. n it got a lot of gameplay out of doom.. it didnt come with a multimedia setup out of the box but when i upgraded it.. boy.. was it something that blew my pants off!

My first computer was this an aquarius by mattel

I bought it in 1998, and here are the specs

- PackardBell
- Intel Pentium 266MHz
- 32MB Ram
- 4MB video memory, built into mother board so it's shared with ram
- 3GB HDD
- floppy disk drive
- Built in CD rom, impossible to remove or even replace
- Case was made of steal and almost impossible to replace anything
- came with Monitor which also has 2.1 speakers built into it
- win 95 (it was supposed to have some customer built in drivers for USB as advertised on the box, but they never worked, always had to install drivers)

All in all a pile of shit, end conclusion....PackardBell loved to have built in shit, and clearly didn't want people touching it's guts....

learnt a valuable lesson, never buy pre-built computer unless their laptops, always buy the parts and built it your self, it's cheapest way if you know what your doing, if not, have a PC shop custom build one for ya but at least have some knowledge in what you want.

My first "computer" was an Amstrad CPC 464. My first PC was a monocrome 80286 8 MHz with 12 MHz "turbo mode"

Mine was an IBM 486 SX 33 Mhz.
Came with a whopping 2MB RAM.

No guarantee that I might have mixed up some specs with my second computer.

is old but the specs i don't know.

it was as pentium 1 160mhz, black and white 14' crt, windows 95.
not sure how much ram. but something around 32mb-64mb

I don't know what our first computer at home was (think we got it 1987). Before that starting somewhere 1984 I'd play around with the computers where my father worked.

My first very own computer (1995) was a HP OmniBook 5000CTS, 90MHz Pentium 1, initially 16Mb RAM (worked all summer a year or two later to bring that to the max of 64), 1.2Gb hdd.

Here's a photo I finally managed to find. I loved the trackerball and for years hated touchpads (still hate them to a degree actually).

Don't remember the brand. But a 286, running a version of DOS. A true 'desktop' (Not a tower, the monitor sat on the computer) Let's see ... oh, and it had this weird option to either let it run at like 2 megs of RAM, or 4 if I wanted to run that option. I went for 4. For I was a speed demon like that. Over the years I added a CD-ROM drive (In all it's 2x glory) and a 14.4 Modem, so I could go on the 'internet' with Prodigy (More like message boards) and I forget the HDD space, but with specs like these, you know it wasn't much.

That was the computer first bought for me as a gift. The first one I ever bought on my own was a Packard Bell, with like 16 megs of RAM and 2 Gigs of HDD space. 28.8k modem I believe. I thought that was a beast of a machine. I guess it was at the time.

not counting my C64, my first would be an Intel 8086 based machine with 640KB RAM.
It had a massive 20MB HDD that we were never able to fill up, and a turbo mode for 12MHz of pure speed!
It also had a kick ass Hercules graphics adapter that allowed me to play Kings Quest in glorious shades of yellowish brown.
