First PC was a Viglen 386 with 8MB RAM and 80MB HDD. It even had both a 3 1/4" and 5 1/2" FDD too!

Anyone else remember when you had to park your HDD before turning the PC off?

Yeah, I remember that.
I used to play Golden Axe for a bit then exit to DOS then type "park c:" or something.
Good times...

I still remember how proud I was when I figured out how to make windows load automatically rather than waiting for it to arrive at the C:\ prompt and typing Win. I was only 10 at the time :o , figured it out for a friend
