It was 1985... 26 years ago

Sasqui · Apr 12, 2011, 08:21 PM

Announced in 1983 (shortly after Apple released the "Apple Lisa", but before the Macintosh), Not released by Microsoft until 1985 as Windows 1.0:

Many of you out there weren't even born yet!

My 1st encounter with Windows was 3.1 in my high school in early 90s.

I remember finding a bootleg copy of Win 1.0 once, never did anything with it.

Maelstrom · Apr 12, 2011, 08:30 PM

6 years for me xD. I think the first computer I used, according to my parents as I have no recollection, was an Apple when I was 2

FreedomEclipse · Apr 12, 2011, 08:30 PM

my birth year... it was a busy one for science. i like that

Vincy Boy · Apr 12, 2011, 09:42 PM

I was 2

but it would be another 10 years before I got to touch a computer. I do remember windows 3.1 and those real "floppy" disks, and being taught to be afraid of breaking computers. Now I kinda love it when something's not working.

amazing video to be honest

PVTCaboose1337 · Apr 12, 2011, 10:42 PM

I ran Windows 1 on this:

However I had a color monitor and a color gfx card, but this is mine. I got rid of the color stuff to put it back to the original B&W configuration.

<3 my IBM 5150.

Drone · Apr 13, 2011, 04:01 AM

Nice era. I was 2.

thunderising · Apr 13, 2011, 04:55 AM

I was born like 8 years later

My 1st encounted was a PIII at my dad's office. Then I just HAD TO BUY a PC.

So when the shiny new P4's were launched, I grabbed the fastest one, 1.6GHz I remember, 64MB SD DDR RAM, 20GB HDD, 15" CRT, Yeah, Win98(XP in a few months), and yes a RIVA TNT2 Gfx Card

RejZoR · Apr 13, 2011, 05:07 AM

I was -1 year old at that time.

MadClown · Apr 13, 2011, 05:17 AM

in 1985, Doc Brown's time machine made its maiden voyage.

skellattarr · Apr 13, 2011, 05:33 AM

Hey you're older than me!

I was working on school (university) supplied HP desktops at the time, I forget what OS it was. My Dad had upgraded from an XT to an AT, and went from 4.77 Mhz to 6.0 Mhz, and he was PSYCHED! (note that my current computer runs at 4.2 GIGA Hz, LOL... 1000x faster than the XT going by clock speed alone).

My computer experience at the time was pretty much limited to Fortran on Unix and programming in Basic on an Apple IIE.

tigger · Apr 13, 2011, 12:37 PM

Was 16 then, was not into pc's then though was into motorbikes 'n' girlz

Jack Doph · Apr 13, 2011, 12:52 PM

Was 18 then. Had been kept informed about the whole Microsoft thing, which I thought was fairly laughable (as was Apple: good gear, but utterly poor implementation).
Had a C64 which a classmate & I were furiously trying to do some serious coding on, before discovering the power of the Amiga.
Nostalgia tends to wash-away the agonies of yesteryear

i was 6,i remember the first pc i saw had black and white display,they showed us kids some circles on the screen and told us they where coloured...

Can't fool a 6 yr old!

In 1985, color monitors were quite a bit more expensive than B&W. But I don't recall seeing anything other than color with the Apple II's
