I had been PC gaming since the early 90s when my family got a Packard Bell computer. It was a very interesting experience using a computer with Windows 95 and 1.2 GB hard drive, with 32mb of ram! The computer was also 77mhz Pentium 1 which was amazing back then in 1995. Overall, I had lots of memories with it including using the internet for the first time with AOL 3.0! Dial up was amazing! I don't know if you can do anything with it nowadays but back then, it was something else. I ended up buying a similar model a couple of years ago (Hence the photo) and went back to the nostalgia of using it. This one came with Windows 98 which is odd. I intend to downgrade it to its factory settings which is Windows 3.11 believe it or not. I am still going to thinker with it so I can get the full experience! I want Windows 3.11 damn it!
I enjoy nostalgia like this and best of all if I can find them and relive them over and over. The computer is now in my office and I turn it on once in a while to try out some nostalgia games and applications. It's just not the same if you emulate them. I guess I'm a purist !
