So...what kind of power did we have in Dec 1994?
Pentium 90........... Fastest CPU for a PC. The P100 came out a few weeks later in January
540MB Hardrive.....I up'ed to 740mb as an option. My HD capacity was about what a CD is now.
8mb of memory....Want another 8mb? Back then it would have been an additional $500.00+
ATI Mach 64.........Whopping 2mb of memory
CD-ROM drive.......4X if I remember right
15" Monitor...........I've used a 22" for so many years I can't imagine how small that would seem
Floppy drive,mouse,keyboard etc...
The machine was an Acer which was a pretty big name back then although they got a pretty crappy reputation for quality later on. I never had any problems,mine worked perfect. Of course by the time I finally got rid of it there was little left inside that was original.
Cost? Around $2700.00 with shipping.
