199_: My first computer ran Windows 95. It was a big deal, it was my parents first home computer. They bought it right around the time i went into kindergarten.
It became mine (and my brothers) once they upgraded.
They got us a super nintendo, then an N64. We remained console gamers until last year.
200_: I wasn't allowed to have a computer in my room until I was 17, thanks to a convenient popup of the adult variety right as my dad walked into the room, causing him to kick my chair and break it. for which i was blamed. I think i was 12. So we had a specific place the computer was to be and the door was to remain open.
From then until about 2007, we kept cycling through crap computers my dad bought from salvation army stores because every little time something went wrong (whether it be a virus or not) I was blamed and not allowed to touch the new one. In about 2007 my dad got fed up and bought a Mac. He now swears by them and blahblahblah.
At 17, I had enough and took an old desktop of ours from the garage. No one said a word about it.
early 2010: I saw videos of garrysmod, decided to look into it.
Had just purchased the orange box for xbox and fell in love.
When I saw that gmod used the orange box I bought it on the spot. Played build a few times; quit due to lousy performance.
2010: Summer, a year ago. Bought an HP Pavillion dv6 (because it was the best price for the range i was looking for in costco-lay off me) for college.
Moved to college, my brothers friend has a damn good (don't know the stats but he built it a few years ago- still competitive today. he paid something like 1300 for it at the time). We paid for the internet; he let us use his PC.
Got back on to steam, downloaded my games.
Found RND.
Came home from school due to severe financial troubles.
Got my laptop back and i'm still on it today.
Told you guys, my PC history is very short.
as for a song? i don't fucking know, so have some rush. what else would I pick?
Rush - Caravan - Clockwork Angels
