Re: Anyone remember the "good ole days" of hardware?
02/27/12 03:29 AM


The first computer that I bought was a Tandy 8088 PC with dual floppy drives. No hard drive. My dad took one of his old 20 meg hard drives that he saved from being thrown out when the rest of the computer died. Since there was no place to properly place it, he had to strap it in to the inside of the system so it was in a stationary location in the system.

I think I bought that in 1990 or 1991.
