Our first computer was a Macintosh Classic, which had a similar build to the original Macintosh of '84. It was a hand-me-down from a family friend who realized that our luddite folks would never bring us into the digital age unless he stepped in. Lucky for us he did so right as we were applying for colleges, so all our essays we're typed up, spell checked, and printed out "professionally" on our dot-matrix printer. Class act baby.

the first machine i ever purchased was a Packard Bell pentium 100Mhz with a 1GB hard drive and 48MB of memory.
i was able to run Photoshop 4 and had some fun times on dial up - but i don't think i would ever put anything that resembled it in my house again.
