My first personal computer was a Radio Shack TRS-80.... The Trash 80.
No hard drives, B/W monitor, chain of floppy drives, and Visicalc software.
Worked the bitch to death.

I'd so buy one!!

and it takes a licking and keeps on ticking! :helpme

i would like to have some one now...

Sharp MZ80K FTW!

Great old times. My first computer was Atari

My very first computer was a Commodore 64. I loved my Amiga 500 better though!

Sweet :) Going to get one of these :D I'm Commodore lover too

I remember those as well.

Haha, nice toy! :) Personally I was a "Speccy" fan. But I still remember that first computer I was paying with. It was Hungarian "TAP 34":

Can you imagine 8-inch floppy disks, ah? :winkwink:

C64 was my first computer however all I ever did with it was play games.

My first useful computer was a 486 DX33 with 4MB of ram and I paid extra for the huge 120mb HD as 80MB was just not big enough :)

MS word worked just as well then as it does today, crazy... Just took longer to install initially.

I remember arguing with friends that the C64 was better than the sinclair and its stupid rubber keys... I believe the sinclair spectrum had more games...

Ah, my C64. We went through so many of those things. Seemed like they worked for about a year, then you go to turn it on and.... BLACK SCREEN. :(

Great memories of logging on to BBS systems overseas using PCPursuit to get the latest 0 day warez. :1orglaugh

Hayes 2400 baud modem FTW!

i even had some in my hands :winkwink:

and i remember sitting at some Commodore 4032 Computer with this great Dual Floppy drive that stored enormous 170 kb per disk :1orglaugh
