Hmm for me, first was an intel 486, really old machine, playing games till I put on glasses, sad aint it? Haix...spent it on my Pri sch days, playing....pacman? lol.
Then came the Pentium Pro for me (power sia...@ tt time...think '95?) Better processing power, indeed.
Then got my first laptop! A Fujitsu PII, still in use, but VERY slow compared to machines now. Still running Win98, lolx!
Next was another desktop to replace the Pentium Pro, a PIII desktop. Still long lasting, albeit slow on the processing front. Running on older Windows systems definitely okay
But call it for gaming, nah....not for the latest games @ least.
Lastly, my current AMD Athlon mobo
