This will be an article discussing the various computers I had close contact with over my life. All of them were Windows computers.
First family computer: I believe it was a Packard Bell. Windows 3.0. 5.25 and 3.5 inch floppy drives. VGA card, but no sound card. Keyboard and mouse.
Second family computer: Packard Bell for sure. Windows 3.11. 3.5 inch floppy drive and CD-ROM. Super VGA and soundblaster card.
Third family computer: Maybe a Dell? Windows 98. DVD-ROM (which served as our only way of viewing DVDs for some time). First computer with a Modem. Sound card and graphics card though as this is standard with later computers I won't list it. Had a Zip Drive that I don't think was ever used.
Brother's Computer: Windows ME. Ran like crap, not sure if that was due to the specs or Windows ME
Fourth family computer: Gateway with Windows 2000. Didn't use this one much, mainly just played Civilization II on it (which still ran fine.) First family computer with a network card.
First college computer: Dell computer with Windows XP. DVD drive, 3.5 inch floppy drive, CD-RW drive. Ethernet card, but no wireless card. Pretty huge hard drive for the time, something like 300 GB. My go to LAN computer, I loved this thing.
Second college computer: Dell laptop with Windows Vista. Main problem was a small hard drive which quickly got eaten up by system and program updates (about 90 GB.) Specs were actually pretty decent otherwise, but it was annoying to have to continually cycle through different programs. Wireless card and combo DVD/CD-RW drive.
First Post-College Computer: Dell laptop with Windows 7. This was in the "Inspiron SE" series aka "We have a bunch of Inspiron chasses lying around but we swapped to a new model. So let's load these old ones up with good hardware and sell it on the cheap!" Didn't have a problem with the hard drive, since it was now 1TB. Combo DVD/CD-RW drive. Four USB drives (not the record, that would be 8 on the Windows XP machine in addition to the copious amount of miscellaneous ports that computers from that era had) but very convenient on a laptop. Over 18 inch screen but wasn't that bulky. Only way it cheaped out was not having a solid state drive, but I never really ran into speed issues in file transferring and the hard drive still works. Eventually the graphics card overheated, but I got about 6 and a half years of solid work out of it. I also loved this machine.
Second Post-College Computer: HP with Windows 10. No drives, only 3 USB ports. Have to use a hub when I connect too many things, especially as the on-laptop keyboard crapped out literally a week after the warranty expired and as such I have to burn a usb port on the keyboard. I've still done a lot of cool things with this computer, including setting up the fake Windows 3.1, so I do like it. But I do not love it.
