Hehe, I win the worst setup contest.

AMD K6-III 400Mhz
128 Mb RAM
Missing the bios chip from the motherboard so my $1000 ROM emulators is now functioning as the less than $1 chip and the case must be off 24/7
Speakers with missing cable so one speaker is amplified by the built in amp and the other is only driven by the sound card (which is an old school ISA Sound Blaster 16 clone)
16xCDROM
14" monitor
AT keyboard with tht AT connector removed and a PS/2 one soldered on in it's place (un-insulated )
cheap 56K modem (runs like a 14.4)

In case you couldn't guess, I never spend cash on my comp

P.S. I voted PC obviously.

[vive-la-france]

well my first comp was worst but ..... i changed it  :wink:
now i have 50x cdrom
24/10/40 cd-burner
15' monitor
80 Gigs HDD cuz i could cook eggs on my old HDD (it was hot )
all i kept from my old comp is the "mitsumi" keybord working with a PS/2 connector and my floppy disk  :lol:

[kev222]

lol. that's still better than mine

My very first PC was a 486 DX4-100 with 8 megs of RAM and an 850 Meg hard disk. A ninja machine when I got it

Edit: Oh yeah, it had a Quad-speed CD-ROM.

I still have the same floppy drive and sound card from that first machine in my PC now

[vive-la-france]

850 megs HDD ??
yu cant' even install a nowadays PC game on it
for example "Age of Mythology" takes 1.5 Gigs or something like that
now there are 120 gigs Hdd
mine is still 60% free despite all the progs i installed on it  

[kev222]

lol I used to use it as a network games machine. I remember that quake was a huge game because it took 60 megs of space. lol

Doom 2 was only 13 or something.

[vive-la-france]

i played to "Jedi Knight 2 Jedi Outcast" online that's pretty funnny to have saber duels with some crazy Jedis  :lol:

Kev : What about Unreal tournament or Half-Life ?

Kev : What about Unreal tournament or Half-Life ?

I stopped playing games after it got to the point where you needed to upgrade your graphics card every week.

Those games were after my time. The last game I actually played on my PC was grim fandango.

-Kev

[vive-la-france]

i don't know that game
yu r right i had to buy a 3D card 2 years ago to be able to play to the new games but now my comp is good i can play to games with big background such as "Medal of Honor Allied Assault"

[LostDwarf]

I build computers as a hobby, it's quite amusing! My first ever was a comedore 64 and we all know how much those rocked!!

[High On Lullabies]

My computer is:
1.6 GHz AMD Athlon XP (You wouldn't have thought it the speed it runs sometimes)
512 Mbs RAM
40Gb HDD
48x CD Drive/ 4x DVD
24x CD-Writer

And that'll do I can't be bothered to put any more. Oh except I have a crappy 56k modem.

HA!!!  Technically my first "Computer" was a Texas Instruments TI994A that had to be hooked up to a TV.. programmed in BASIC and if you wanted to save anything.. you hadd to hook it up to a tape recorder and record the "noises" onto an audio cassette.

but then the first "real" computer i bought was:

486DX2-50MHz
4MB RAM
340MB Hard Drive
1MB Video Accelerator
MS-DOS 6.2

ONLY $1449!!!  What a STEAL!!!!
