What was your #FirstComputer?
Mine was midi tower with a Cyrix Cx486DX4 (75Mhz), 8MB of memory, an S3 Trio 64v+ graphics card and a whopping 850MB hard drive. Display was a 14“ CRT that could only output up to 800x600 pixels. The operating system on it was Dos 6.x and I was a regular Norton Commander user.
Later that computer got upgraded by my brother to a Pentium MMX 166Mhz with 16MB ram and a 2,x GB hard drive with Windows 95, before I discovered Linux on a CDRom in a magazine and broke everything while trying to install it but not understanding the concept of partitions😅
Later that computer was running on dual boot with #Suse #linux and Windows 95 and I leaned C programming on the machine.
