What is your computers timeline? + themesong
Cable:
My first PC was this really shitty Compact Laptop. No clue what the specs were, That thing died years ago. Good thing I had it though because otherwise I wouldn't have gotten into PC games. That laptop had problems running Runescape sometimes.
My second PC was a prebuild Dell my dad bought so he and I could play world of warcraft.
That thing served me well for 2 years. I used it to play WoW and Crossfire. We still have the PC now,
But it belongs to my sister now.
My third PC is my computer. I got it from my grandmother for free. It was also a 2008 prebuild dell. When I first got it, The parts were so bad inside. My dad and I slowly got the money to start upgrading it. Since this PC was stable for medium games at the time, It had brought me to knowing Steam, Garrys mod, and all of you guys.
My fourth PC is my netbook. I got it for my Bday a few weeks ago. I use it often. bla bla
ursus:

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

My first computer was a computer that my dad brought home from his work. It had a Pentium 4 and an onboard graphics card 16mb (LOLOLOLOL SUX) but I couldn't play anything really, so I upgraded it to some Nvidia card 128mb. I've used it for like 5 years and runs with XP. It was a nice computer at the time, but then it started getting old and rundowned so...
My parents decided to buy me a new computer at the beginning at this year. So we got a Dell Studio XPS 8100 for about less than 1000 dollars. With a really strong graphics card, cpu, and a massive hard drive space, I'm loving it.
I don't really have a lot of computers :P
Theme song? Eh.. idk but I like this :P
Portal - Credits Song 'Still Alive'

no offense, but your dad sounds like a potato
ON TOPIC:
COMPUTER ONE:
Some big old white thing that ran Windows 98, dug it out of deep in the garage just five minutes ago for photo purposes. My only memory of it was playing Rollercoaster Tycoon 2 at like 2AM and then mom walks in. I think we had it for two, three years.
COMPUTER 2 (2004 - 2011)
My old trusty stallion, got as soon as Windows XP came out. I cannot remember how many times to hard-drive has been formatted how many system restores it went through, all the shit that went into and came out of it. I hated this fucking thing. But, I loved it. The specs I think I will always remember by heart.
AMD Athlion 2.43ghz single-core
1.5GB DDR2 RAM
150GB HDD
GeForce FX 5200
Although it breaks my heart to see that I no longer own it (it's going to be my mom's computer now), I can now live with the fact that I have...
THIRD COMPUTER
Oh yeah.
I'm gonna use this thing for a looooong time.
