Do you still have your first PC? I got this Dell 4100 back in 2001. It was one of the first 1GHz machines. PIII/512mb/20GB I sold this computer in the mid 2000’s to a friend. Later it went through a flood and sat. He gave it back to me a few years ago thinking it didn’t work. It still does.

    I added the Y2K sticker even though this isn’t pre 1999. Has a BFG FX5200. I re-pasted the CPU and GPU recently.

  2. CorruptDictator

    I do still have it, in storage, an Amiga 500.

  3. No, unfortunately. I wish I knew where my Pentium 100 went.

    Can’t kill those old Dell’s! Got an XPS T450 with that same Micron case. Love it!

    Well my first PC had a tape drive and a double sided floppy. I in fact did not keep it. Even though I upgraded it with an EGA card and a RAM/multi function add in card when the XT era came in. I even installed an NEC v20 and hard drive later . That helped me skip over the XT/AT series and went straight for a shiny 386sx 20Mhz. It’;s just that computers and peripherals were SO damned expensive.

    Now, in comparison, my crappy phone is immensely more powerful and useful.

    I still have the first PC I owned myself back in the days. It is a Dell Dimension P133s. There has been a few upgrades to the system since purchase, but it still works and still use it for old games.

    My C-64 yes. 1MHz. I had to throw out my Amiga 2000 but I kept the chips and faceplate.

    I still have my Commodore 64 and my IBM.
    Buried in various places of my parents house are all my PCs.

    Never some got rid of any of them. I must root them all out some day.

    The first PC that was strictly mine was a beige box PIII 833 with 128MB of RAM and a Nvidia TNT2 video card. Played a whole lotta Unreal Tournament on that puppy. Sadly I don’t have any of that stuff anymore.

    I’d love to still have my first PC for the sentimental value. 486/33, 8MB of ram (I think), massive 200MB hard drive.

  14. Locket382

    Yes, my Phenom II X4 820, with 4gb ram and GPU on-board

    Thks was back when they still made devices that actually last for long

  16. My first PC I put together via parts starting with a hand me down Packard Bell in the late 90s. Started as a 486 machine, eventually got a Pentium over drive processor. When I finally got my own “proper” machine around 2000 I handed it to a neighbor kid who was into computers. He got a few more years out of it, so it was the right move.

    My dad bought me this same model for Xmas, I almost cried seeing yours and the wave or emotion. My dads been gone about 10yrs and I have a hard time not remembering him as he was when cancer took him, he just didn’t even look human bone cancer is fucking horrible . Remembering the pc took me back to that Xmas and I can see his face from when I was a kid. Thank you

  22. Marty5020

  23. Thunderstorm-1

  24. AncientPCGuy

    No. But I wish I did.

    IBM PC 8088 CGA 2-5 1/4” no HD.

    That thing is a collectible now.

  25. LMMSDeadDuck

    My first machine was a 386/33 MHz with 4 MB RAM and a whopping 120 MB HDD. I remember the sales guy saying it was a “bottomless pit” of storage. lol
