I am twenty one and I remember Encarta, MindMaze, Pinball Science, the lot. :D

I remember waiting ten minutes for the £2,000 Amstrad desktop to fire up.

Just for an extra touch of nostalgia, who remembers this:

Now I feel old. :eek:

Meh, nothing. Who remembers this?


And my first pc I bought was a Viglen DX50 with 4mb ram, 15" crt screen, 3 x NEC CDROM, 1mg Tseung Labs grpahics card, 80Mb hard drive and a hard drive cache card with 4mb ram and cost me £2,100. :eek:
 
Spent hours on encarta 95 on my old DX4100.

Found this recently and it all came flooding back. I remember when I first saw it and thought "Wow, this is so cool".

 
And the first game which got me really hooked on gaming on the pc. Me and a mate played this for 48 hours none stop on a boozed/drugged weekend.

Encarta 95. I loved the videos on it, especially the blues guitar one.

Kids now will never know the pleasure of watching something like that. It was amazing back then.

BTW I was 13 in 95.
 
Ah, encarta was good back in the day. I also spent many lunchtimes on mindmap... It was so amazing having so much information just THERE. Lots of fun... I'm almost tempted to go and find the old Encarta disk when I go home, but I think the memory is nicer than the reality would be.
