All of our old comps (except one) are disassembled right now, so I will just mention our oldest parts as one computer.

Specs:
Processor: 33Mhz Intel 486DX
Sound Card: Creative Sound Blaster 16 Value
Video Card: 3Dfx Voodoo2
RAM: 256MB 133Mhz DDR(1)

My dad once had a TRS-80 CoCo2, but IDK what happened to it.

My oldest computer is being used as a nightstand as of now.

If I remember, 1.5Ghz processor, 512mb RAM, NVIDIA 256mb Gfx card (no remember which), Win XP Pro, and a lot of multimedia ports. It was a media pc, but then gave it the gfx card and 256mb extra RAM to make it a really old gaming computer. And a 30gb HDD.

My other computer has 2.8Ghz processor, 2gb RAM, aprox 512mb video memory (1gb vid card on the way), 500gb HDD, and runs Win 7 Pro 64-bit.

My netbook came with whatever it came with. Then we dumped Win 7 Pro 32 bit on it,

My oldest computer is a windows XP

subzerostig · 2010-12-05 12:23:11

We had something like a 1997 I only know one of its specs and thats RAM was 52mb

pathetic isn't it

meowmeow55 · 2010-12-05 16:04:11

Oldest comp that is readily available is a Centrix Windows 3.1. It died, but my dad ripped the hard drive and put it in a VM big_smile

My grandma has an IBM PC with PC-DOS 3.22 (I think) and an added-in hard drive; it used to work, but its memory went bad sad

The oldest computer that I ever knew that my family owned was a really old dinosaur that ran SunOS. Believe it or not, it still works.

thecrazyguy · 2010-12-05 17:44:08

Do you know the brand Alien Ware?

I had an alien ware pc that had a glass tower that glowed as it booted itself up. Because it had a dodgy graphics card we had to get another one and when we took it apart we broke the cooling fan.

Now it only runs for 30 minutes before cutting out. But its really fast now wink

You know alot about Computers wink
Have you ever made a computer? Me and my grandad took an old Dell model and stripped it; putting in new parts. Ever since i've been interested in Computers. Not building them, but the amazing things that are possibly done with them smile

I made my main one cool
However I like programming them as much as I like building them.

Also because I built it, it only cost £90. That's about $141.

We had two old computer towers and they were my Grandads so they didnt cost me anything... Although we did have to buy a cover for it for around £16. smile

I did have a really old 95 computer which was thrown out a few years ago. A Couple of Mb's for the HD. RAM was something like 30-50kb. Processor was, well slow.

Oldest working one at home (Which I saved from the tip):

Custom Built around the year XP came out.
Currently runnning Windows XP, Ubuntu 10 and 3 other updated versions of Ubuntu 10

Proccessor: Around 1.2 - 1.6Ghz (can't remember) (It has over heated at some stage and performance would be half of that)
RAM: 1Gb was 512MB at purchase
Hard Drive: 80GB. Effective capacity is now 69GB (Thats what the computer see's when calculating total usable space) after part of the hard drive became currupted.
Graphics: 128Mb Graphics card (Much less now because it over heated as it struggles to run slide shows)

Commodore 64. And Blade-Edge, don't even press "quote" because I know you will.
