packard bell 486 lol
I had a IBM AT thought we were the class of the world
Basis 108 Apple II clone. Spent $3,000 and had to drive several hours to Miami to pick it up.
No, I started out with a VIC-20 too. Had an expansion board on the back that would allow you to install more than one cartridge at a time; had a 3KB(!) RAM extension card, and a couple of other cards plugged in all the time. Had the 300baud modem, which I used to connect with a buddy at school; we used to type back and forth to each other on the phone!
Used the cassette drive, and wrote a LOT of programs on that thing. Made my own games for it, etc., because my mom and dad wouldn't buy me any.
I worked for an entire summer to scrape up the $200 for my next machine, a Commodore 64. Got the 1541 hard drive for it, thought I had the world by the tail!
I have a Vic 20, nice old school computer, I'm getting a Commodore 64 soon, and I have saved a 128 as well, cannot wait to build up my C= collection

Commodore 64, without a tape drive, too poor to get that part...do you all remember typing the code for that ping pong game, hehe?
A veteran, whether reserve, active or retired is a person who has written a check to the United States up to and including the payment of his life for the freedoms we take for granted!!!
Commodore Vic 20 was rocking the house..
TI-99. I remember reading the TI book and spending hours typing BASIC code to make a block figure dance across the screen for about three seconds. I think it was called Mr. Bojangles. Good stuff!
My first old machine? Vic 20, first computer I used? A windows XP dell
Update: cleaned my Vic and it looks awesome now!
Ps3 for me..my parents had a packard bell growing up...still wondering what they did w it..they say it around somewhere
my first computer was an Apple IIe. The first computer that I bought for myself was an IBM Clone 386
Funny because i just picked up one of these the other day off eBay for $250, heres a wonderful picture of it <3

Powermac 1996. had to upgrade the HDD to a whopping 2.1 GB.
on a better note, it convinced me to buy apple stock back in 1996. that was a good idea
We're the renegades of Junk!
