first pc was my dad's windows 95 machine, used to get cd's from the local library with different games, i remember there was a ww1 flight sim 1 called red baron i particularly enjoyed, as well as a demo cd with missile command and frogger on it.
first pc i owned was a sort of a hand-me down, can't remember the specifics but it was a 700mhz single core amd with 512mb of ram until i randomly found another 256mb stick and put it in there (yeah, i didn't know much about pc's then). had an nvidia gpu although cant remember what type.
from that i "upgraded" to a dual core athlon laptop which tbh was worse in many respects due to a lack of gpu so i still kept the old tower for a good while later. thing clogged up with dust and in the end the battery life was just long enough to shut it down before it booted, which was fine because even if you had it plugged in launching more than 1 browser tab at a time would overheat the cpu (yes really, it would idle after boot at 100° before you even did anything)
after that i finally entered the master race, although starting from no real knowledge i of course bought the amd 8 core chips because how can a 4 core be better than an 8 core? right?
still have that although it's yet to shake off bulldozer it has had enough periphery upgrades to perform well enough for what i need (i think newer games using more cores certainly helps).
first mobile was a nokia 3310, then i stayed on the yearly upgrade bandwagon until i gave up around 2008 and just started getting hand me downs (and not bad hand me downs either). didnt buy another phone again until i got the z5 i currently have.
