My computing history
Following recent blogs from both Chris S and Chris D. I decided I’d join in and list off every system I’ve owned. I’m fairly hazy on the details of the earlier systems as they where family systems and I didn’t exactly have much of an interest in their specifications what with being 5 and all.
P1 Gateway
Pentium 1
I remember playing DOOM and Duke Nukem 3D on this thing!
Windows 95
P2 Gateway
Pentium 2
Windows 98
Same as above!
Dell Precision (something)
Pentium 4 2Ghz
256MB SDRAM
40GB HD
WinXP
I started getting interested in technology about here. Hence the wanting to build my own machine.

This was probably my first venture into all things technology, although I spent the majority of my time playing games with it. I did however learn to construct and troubleshoot my own machines at the age of 14.
