A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

My first PC, custom built, was an Intel 486DX4 100Mhz. 4MB RAM and a 800MB HD. Paid in a currency that doesn't exist anymore.

Mine was 75MHz and 8MB of RAM. Windows 95 was too heavy but WFW was great.

Man, I was a teenager, reading the PC magazine ads, wishing I had the money to build a system like this!
