when I bought my first x86 pc most households didn't even own a computer and the rather basic model I bought costme £1500 at the time!
does this mean your an old fart like me...
My dad worked from home so had access to a few at the time..
he had a 386dx 20 with maths co processor
my mum had an Amstrad PC1512
i had an unbranded 386sx 25 built from a scrap pile
