What was your first computer ?

[Baal]

I had the commadore 64 - some of those floppy games were pretty cool - does anyone know where I might find the EMU?

80x86, monochrome monitor, double density floppy (720kb), no-hd, no external ram.. it wasn't even able to load himem.sys because it was requiring 286 kind of processors... but it was much more fun than this... sigh.

Mine was the Sinclair ZX Spectrum 48K.A small litte black number with a rubber keyboard.You use to have to connect it up to a tape recorder to load up games.It was very basic to use and the programing was a joke by standards now day's.But the games was very playable with blocky graphic's.Then up graded to the ZX Spectrum 128K,Amiga 500A till I got my first home PC.

My school used to use the BBC computer

I remember all those.

I had something you had to program in hex just to play with a little. Then bought a Commodore 64 that I didn't like and returned it for an Atari 800. I added dual, double density drives for $900, and a $400 printer dot matrix printer.

HP but who remembered back in the mid-1990's, internet companies charged you "an internet user fee per minute" to use. That was Bell South/ATT based in Atlanta. (Just like Bell South still charges me a fee per minute to use the cell phone !)

I was upset when the secretary used my computer to talk to her boyfriend in california and costed me $2,000.00 internet fee a month back in 1997 ! (We have come a long way in less than 10 years)

(I remembered the first computer I used back in 1979 was bigger than 2 times of a mid-size car in school)

Bally Arcade with CPU module. Never came out with the full keyboard or disk drive, (making too much money on Space Invaders). Had to program it like cell phone & PDAs today and save to audio diskette.
Then Apple][+ and IIe.

Dude, you need to take better care of your equipment. It looks like it's been sitting at the bottom of the Mediterranean for 2500 years.
