my first comp was a 386 with windows 3.1
i used dos to type stuff and then print it on my dot matrix printer. i thought i was so cool because i was the first kid in my hood with a computer.
i also had MS flight simulator. it was on 1 (thats right, ONE) 3.5 floppy!

- this is in post-communist Russia, too, so computers were scarce, to say the least. And having one at home - I had to actually conceal the fact that I have it. I remember I typed a school paper on it and my moms got all pissed off and made me write the paper by hand bc I was like one of 3 or 4 kids in my school that even had a computer - much less a printer... those were the times - floppy disks, dial up modems (with nothing to connect to)... eeeeehhhhh

I had me a 386 SX-2 with 2Mb or RAM that I later upgraded to 4 Mb! It was fast at 40MHz and had an SVGA video card that didn't freeze at all when I played DOOM for days and days and days... And then came the 486 with 66MHz and I was, like, "WOOOOOOOW! That is FAAAASSST!!!" I worked my ass off for the whole summer, saving up for the motherboard and the 486 DX-4 processor. When I finally got it, all my friends were like - this is in post-communist Russia, too, so computers were scarce, to say the least.

Of course! I'm just seeing what I want to download. I need a bigger hard drive.
