I give a shout out to all of you who know of the first personal computers that came out like the 286. Man back in the day i used to play Gpega on one of those on a black and white Hercules monitor. Then i moved up to the 386, 486, pentium I... I think i went through all the generations of computers there were. I still play old school games on my current computer: Intel quad core q6600. old times are the best.

Before 286, I was playing on the Apple II....the one with the luminous green monitor...

Then I got 286, the first Pentium....Pentium III and now Core Duo....

And you're right....those were the days

Hello djoby2005. I remember that old machine I used when I was in college....101 keys keyboard, 3.5" FDD, 4.77 MHz speed,640K RAM and so forth. The old computer is still with me. I let my nieces play the computer for games and other educational projects.
