What computers have you owned?

This will show how old some of us are...


What computers / Laptops / Tablets have you owned over time?


I'll start:


My first computer was a 486 with only 4MB of RAM. Serial Ports, No USB's!

I remember the day we got a sound card and then eventually a CD drive and then came a 56K Dial up modem!


In order:


Intel 486 33Mhz 4MB RAM, 170MB HDD, Windows 3.11, VGA Graphics, Floppy Drive!


Pentium MMX 200Mhz, 128MB RAM, 1GB HDD (Good old 56K modem on Screaming.Net, and then NTL)


(I think there was an AMD K6 machine somehwere at this point but I always had issues with it)


Samsung Netbook (Not a great Spec'd machine but good for traveling aroundand browsing the web)


My first home built machine: Pentium 4, 3.4Ghz 4GB RAM, WindowsXP, ATI Graphics Card, 500GB HDD


Apple IMac 27" i7 Quad Core, 8GB RAM, 500GB HDD (Loved the large screen on this)


Asus Zenbook i7 Laptop 8GB RAM, 256GB SSD





My current setup:




I much prefer a laptop to desktops now.


Apple Macbook Air M1 8 Core, 16GB RAM 500GB SSD



Apple 9th Gen iPad




As you can see I jumped ship to Apple.
