Pavel there is no chance you had 80GB back in 1995,i dont even know if such an HD existed back then and even if it existed it would cost something like 15000 dollars and i am not exaggerating on the price with which at that time you could easily buy a Mercedes or something.In 1996 my Seagate Barracuda SCSI just on 9 Gigabytes cost something like 2000 dollars and bigger hard drives cost as much as 20000 dollars.

Concerning my pc's now.

First one was a Commodore 64 that i didnt even know how to connect on my television.I used it just for playing games like Commando and Pitfall.I should be something like 6-7 years old back then.

Then i had an Amiga 500 which was just legendary.I spend 5 hours a day playing Sensible Soccer on it.

My first Intel PC was an IBM Aptiva 166 somewhere in 1995 which i imported from USA for the astronomical at the time price of 4000 dollars since it was considered as one of the most powerful machines in the world back then.

P.S MK you had a Spectrum with the tapes mate?Man what 8 minutes are you talking about it needed 30 minutes to load a game.           Toodaloo Motherfuckers!!!!!

The first pc I used was a printaform (mexican) using the big flexible disk to run the OS, the games of the time were prince of persia, and the one of the cat that jumped inside windows (all in pink and blue)

Mine was intel celeron 233 mhz 4 gb with win 1998.

... and then i screwed some 2/386 PC together of waste parts from the electronics dump

Ages ago...an Apple II, my mum still has that computer...I'm sure it still works.
Then my dad bought a Mac 128K, the first GUI after the Lisa...those were the days I tell you.
An apple/Mac fanboy since then.
