Originally posted by Colin My school was like that too, unfortunately. Except everyone was only allowed to use the school floppies, because the were afraid of viruses and stuff that probably didn't exist. Probably. I brought my own in, and was only allowed to use it after I told everybody twice that it had been scanned. It wasn't. |

| Our first computer was an Amstrad 286, which came with Windows 3.0 and a dot-matrix printer. I played my first videogames on it - Lemmings, Zany Golf, Outrun, Captain Comic, Prince of Persia. Then we got a 486, which came with Windows 3.1. On this, I had Monkey Island II: LeChuck's Revenge, Commander Keen, The Dig, Simon the Sorcerer (Brit point'n'click adventure) and Wolfenstein 3D. It also had QBasic, which would later found my interest in computer programming (later to be cemented and built into a career by PHP on a P133). Then we got our first Pentium with a CD drive, and I had Doom and Duke Nukem 3D and all the rest. My first computer I bought with my own money was an Athlon 1.4GHz with a GeForce 2 Pro and 256MB of DDR RAM. The day I bought this in 2002 is documented somewhere in the Way Back Machine archives for acmlm.overclocked.org/board. I learned to program on a BBC Micro in BBC Basic in 1991. Me and a friend got a book on Basic out of the school library and stayed behind after school to type in the source code for games from the book. I was seven ![]() |

I lurk ![]() We never had computer technicians in primary school, the children often had more of a clue than the teachers did. Luckily we went to a fairly enlightened primary school where they would let us use the computers after hometime. |

Lain's post №636
Ah.
We used to have this cable box in our basement that let us change the channel using this old remote that looked like it had some sort of faux-wood effect around it and a metal faceplate (that eventually came off.) I think that it was in color. Of course, this was around 1996, 1997. ____________________ |

This was old fucking school right here First episode Good show. Watching the whole thing right now thanks to this thread! E- Sure it's one of those PBS shows. But Ghostwriter is actually interesting once you watch it. I remember watching this with my dad back when I was younger (Here in the South, it never aired until 1992, in which I was 5 years old at the time, and we watch this religiously. Hell it might be why I was so damn good in English or whatever, being German and all) Ghostwriter was one of my favorite shows that I grown op on. *Snip* E- Nevermind ____________________ __________________________________

Paulguy's Post configuration
I think I had a few pogs people gave me but I don't really remember them, or really paid attention to the game. OR maybe I was a rabid collector of the things, I really don't remember at all. I just know I didn't play the game. Kinda like me and Pokemon cards back in the day I had TONS of them, just because I liked to collect them, but never really cared for the game. I wasn't one of those crazy collectors that liked to sort and organize them. I think I just left them in the box and looked at them sometimes. They stayed at grandma's house, though, so I didn't get to do anything with them very often, either... then I just kinda lost interest in Pokemon altogether and eventually gave them away. I didn't really have any terribly valuable cards, anyway, and it was to someone who was younger and Less Fortunate or something so thought "Why not?" because by then I just didn't care at all. :p
