I thought it would be cool to see a history of what users of OCF have used, computer wise, their whole lives. Some of us may be in our teens, some of us may be in our 70s. I'd like to see at what point people got into the computing scene, and what kind of hardware they've owned over the years.
Also, please list any modifications you performed, or had performed (by someone else) on your hardware.
Me:
(Commodore) Amiga 500 (added 512K RAM expansion)
(privately built) Pentium 75Mhz (no mods) (technically my grandfather's, but I used it more than he did)
(Solar Microsystems) Pentium II 300Mhz (Added a Voodoo Banshee vid card and Soundblaster)
(privately built) Athlon 1000Mhz (Added Geforce 2 GTS)
(Dell) Pentium 4 3.2Ghz (Added ATi AIW 9600)
(built myself) Core 2 Duo E6550 2.33Ghz (Added GeForce 8800GTS)
(built myself) i7 950 (added GeForce GTX 580)
(built myself) i7 2600K (no mods)
Honorable mention: 386DX (My uncle's computer where I learned how to use a PC)
Favorite system: Amiga 500. I have fond memories of this Hard drive-less dinosaur clunking along in my bedroom in my childhood.
