Re: What is the first computer

It was Sinclair Spectrum, then later on got a Commodore C 64 :biggthumb:
Used to have to load programmes from a cassette tape. It had to run and the programmes were loaded in the memory, after which you could typ a command to start whatever ptogramme it was. :@:

Something like this:

Then there was AMIGA as well at that time, very popular for games :chai:

Then got a IBM PC clone (XT, AT) with no Windows on it!! There was no Windows then, only DOS, and had to know all the commands off head to be able to run the PC. And I still know them :jhanda:

Re: What is the first computer

HP pavilion dv6707 with 120 gb hard drive (with windows more like 90 gb left) and 2 gb ram. I had to change the screen when someone returned it and the touch buttons on top, specifically the volume button and volume control, would just flicker and then die off. The whole touch board would light up again if I restart the computer so don't know what was going on there. I sold it and moved to a Lenovo which I sold little more than an years ago.
