Re: How much did you pay for your 1st computer?

Mine was really late: RM7k Dell Dimension XPS-T (1999) loaded up to the Yazoo (at that time). P-III Katmai, 'humongous' 128MB RAM, 'fastest' 4x Sony CD-RW, Diamond TNT-Riva AGP, Turtle Beach Montegro II sound card, Altec Lansing ADA-885 (5.1 THX/AC3, Dolby Digital, 140W RMS) speakers. Had 'fastest' 7200rpm WDC Caviar HDD. And, 19" CRT monitor!

Later upgraded to 512MB RAM, added another 7200 rpm WDC Caviar HDD. Swapped to 40x Sony CD-RW, later to LiteOn 4x DVD-RW, and more recently, Pioneer DVR-A08XL 16x DVDRW, and currently, Pioneer DVR-110 16x DVDRW. LOL!

Still alive today!!! Altho currently switched off as I'm playing with a 'faster' Dell Dimension 800MHz unit. LOL! Pioneer DVR-110 16x stolen fr ancient PC to this 'newer' unit. You shd see it trying to burn an 8x DVDR. heh heh.

Was provided with RM10k+ notebooks before this, so started 'owning' one v late in life. LOL! I thot paying RM7k for a PC then was decent until told otherwise, and that I need to go get my head checked! But amazingly, nothing died on me (except MS mouse) until today - touch wood.

Waiting for Dell to throw out a Conroe box for me to get my second PC. LOL!

XEQ.
