Soldato
First PC was a ESCOM desktop PC. It had a Cyrix Cx486DX 66Mhz CPU, 8MB RAM (Upgrade from 4MB cost close to £150), 630MB HDD, CD-ROM Drive, 1.44 MB Floppy Drive, SoundBlaser Card and some cheap graphics card. Oh and it had Windows 95!
Anyone remember Gateway? They were huge too. I seem to remember their packaging had a black and white "cow pattern" on it.
My first PC was a custom built rig delivered to me in Jan 1997. Everything was top spec for the time.
P166 Mhz
32MB RAM
2.1 GB Hard Drive
Matrox Mystique graphics 2d/3d card (2mb)
Creative Labs AWE32 sound card
US Robotics 33.6k modem
Quad speed CD
17" Sony Trinitron Monitor
Nobody owned a 486 100mhz DX4 then?
Creative soundblaster......id forgotten about them.
I don't miss having to tweak config.sys and autoexec.bat to tweak low and high memory to get various programmes and games to run!
