Default Re: New computer ordered

Well, I remeber the first computer I built. It had 8 MB of ram. Most at that time had 4 MB. lol. Then I got a HUGE hard drive. It was 120 MB. Most people had 40 MB. I remember asking a salesperson how much 40MB was. Their reply was "it is all the storage space you will ever need. lol hahahaha. I can't think of too many programs that would fit on that small of a hard drive now adays, let alone an operating system lol. Oh and I bought a BIG 17" monitor that cost me $800 and was a really good deal at the time. Then I bought a HP legal size flatbed scanner. That was $1200. It didn't print, didn't copy, didn't fax, just scanned. Plus it had a fussy card that you had to install on the motherboard to even work.

Yep, those were the days. I give 8GB of ram 5 years tops lol
