My first computer was a ZX Spectrum (don't remember if it was a 16K or 48K model).
My first PC was a home brewed 486 at 33 MHz (66 MHz Turbo) with 8 MB RAM and a 480 MB HDD with the regular 3.5" and 5.25" floppy drives

I got mine in 1993-1994, it was a 386DX 40MHz Turbo - 26MHz normal, 4MB memory, 170MB harddisk, 5.25" FDD and 3.5" FDD. It got Sound Blaster pro, and a 256kB VGA? I forgot... I played DOOM and DOOM II on it... It got Windows 3.1, listened to some classical music with "The Pianist", connected to my ROLAND keyboard over MIDI, sounds like a CD back then :). Good memories...

Had a big motorcycle smash, then the bike was stolen from the side of the road while I was being patched up in hospital. I used the insurance money to buy a train season ticket and a Commodore 64. My son and I used to play a Lucas game on it called "Rescue on Fractalus" - never failed to make us both jump when the alien suddenly appeared :)

Wow... it's rare to see a fellow 386DX user :) It was a good computer, slow... but good. I've got good memories of it... It rarely broke down, maybe because it's so darn simple to boot...?

Commodore 64 in 1982. Manic Miner and Jet Set Willy are the games I remember, though I did have several adventure ones as well.
