computers
This is my live post documenting the computers I have owned.
1. Mac

Bought for $25 from a garage sale in about 1999. At this time, Si also had an identical Mac which cost him only $5. The picture may not be exactly right, but it was "one of those macs with a handle". Coolness.
2. Zenith laptop running Windows 3.1

This was the closest image I could find. Mine had the black and white screen. I paid not very much for it, could have been $50. I sold it for $200 - could have been $250.
3. Pentium I IBM 75mhz 32mb 1gb

Again, this is a similar but not exact image of this computer. I paid (sigh...) was it $375 or $475? It could have even been $200, I can't remember. It was an absolute bargain. Came with a sweet as computer desk, a printer, a then unheard of 21" monitor that weighed more than you do. It was a very reliable computer with a huge 1gig hard drive and a CD drive that sounded like some music you hear today on the radio. I played Hugo's Horiffic Adventure, Nitemare, Avenger and other classics. The Age of Empires I demo only just worked on it, so that was fun too. I learned heaps on this computer.
brief list which will be updated eventually:
