I remember using that model of an iMac in elementary school. I loved the way they looked. I still kind of like the form factor, especially with how aesthetically pleasing it is considering there's a CRT monitor in there.First computer used, an Apple II GS in 1st grade. Tiny color screen and giant dot matrix printer.
First family computer was a Power Macintosh 6500 purchased in 1997. PowerPC 603e@225MHz, 32MB RAM, 3GB HD, 33.6K modem. Running Mac OS 7.6.1 on a 15' 1024x768 screen. I think my parents paid around $1700 for it (came with an Epson printer as well).
First computer I bought was a Bondi Blue iMac (rev B). Had a 233MHz G3 CPU, 32MB RAM and 4GB HD on Mac OS 8.6, Paid somewhere around $1300 for it in Dec 1998 using the proceeds from my first job. I almost immediately paid another $80 for a 64MB RAM upgrade to make it much more responsive.
Noob question here, but what OS was that. 3.1?My first computer was a Commodore 64 that I picked up for $10 at a yard sale. Didn't even have a floppy drive... you had to load applications from cartridge or cassette tape.
My first "real" computer was an IBM PS/2 Model 50Z. It had a 286 processor, 30 MB hard drive, and a whopping 8 MB of RAM. Back then, you needed a special expansion card and drivers that you loaded in CONFIG.SYS to access that much memory.
