You haven’t always had a computer, and it was cool to have the internet.

--remember my friends dad got a pentium 75, win 95 and an internet connection... I was really jealous.....we had a 386 at home with win 3.11 =)

You know the significance of the number 23.
--I'm fairly certain this is Michael Jordan we're referring too... :idea:

[Mattk]

^Yeah, I thought 23 might have been Michael Jordan, but I wasn't sure so I didn't italicise it. I was a Jordan fan.

And I loved Windows 3.1. In fact, no, I loved MS-DOS.

hmm.... I used to play home made computer games my dad wrote for his Attache in 1982 (granted, i didn't play it really til 1985)

after that, we graduated to various GUI's, even using the original Windows system here and there... running MSDos long before Windows 1, we ran Lotus Notes, and Easy Cad for fun, and installed Flight simulator (a cesna, and swapwith camel) in 2 color (white, and less white) eventually graduating to EGA, then one day we went on to VGA... which we'd be stuck on for years before we made it to SVGA. For a long while, we were ahead of the curve until the divorce kinda took "fun money" out of the game.

yeah, we had some dot matrix printers that were loud as hell

windows 3.1? we didn't use that until the early 90's on that laptop, we played Wolfenstein 3d on it, it pwned in laptop monochrome! Windows 95? hmm.... that must have been 1996 before we got Windows 95; along with joining the AOL speak revolution on dial up superfast 9600 baud modems. We didn't upgrade again until we bought a new PC in 1999, and it had Windows 98 SE... that computer still works great. That was the PC i learned how to build one from scratch... its nowhere near what it originally was, and lead me to never want to buy some OEM prebuilt pc crap again.

And somewhere in between; I had a mac... and never will have that POS again. Suddenly everything i knew meant nothing, and i had to be stupid to run that POS OS; so i became stupid, and it ran fine. But... then i couldn't do anything school related that was of any value, i couldn't play games I loved... it was just stupid. (and a "powerful" mac of its era... all for naught)

So with a PIII 600 mhz, I was lanning, my friends were lanning, and we were trading massive files... we finally got broadband without limitations, and napster hit.

I suddenly had bagillions of games, songs, videos, and anime (no hentei) We set up lans at my house for the weekend, or my friends houses... it was fun... we usually l,ost sleep on the weekends. Fun.

So that PC was slow, and i built one in mid 2002 as a top of the line machine... top end graphics, top end ram, top end processor, and a great mobo; and a nice big CRT i still use now. I've upgraded a number of times over the last 4 years... but its feeling dog slow to all these new fangled PC's we got here. That will have to be updated sometime soon

[gigdy]

POG'S, i still have some, i rule
