My First Computer was a Spectrum ZX81 with 4bit graphics (Black and White) and a huge 12k of RAM, I move upward and onwards and got ZX Spectrum 48k+, a huge upgrade with 8bit color graphics and a massive 48k or RAM.

Then I really moved up in the world and got a Commadore Amiga 500 with 1Int Floppy and 3 Ext Floppies, I then lept up to the 1200 series. After a year or so I got my First PC. It was a DX2-66 with 32 Mb Ram and a 4Mb Voodoo Card, it didn't even have a modem lol. I upgraded that to a DX4-100 with 64 Mb RAM and I have that for about 2 yrs. I was faster than a new P100 that had been launched about 6 months after i bought it user added image. It had Windows 3.11 as its OS. I miss the days of DOS...

I then got a P2 400 with dual Voodoo 2 Cards (8Mb each) and it had a massive 64 Mb or RAM. From that I got my old IBM Intellistation and upped that eventually to 2Gb RAM and Dual Pentium Xeon 2.8GHz processors.

My Latest machine is an AMD 3.2Ghz Dual Core x4 Black Edition Processor with 4Gb RAM and a nVidia GF8500GT 128Mb card. The card is showing its age.
