Let's see ....

a Sinclair something (1980?)
a VIC 20 (1981?)
an original Macintosh 512K with no hard drive (1985)
a 286/12.5 MHz with a whopping 2 MB of RAM (1992)
a 486/33 (1994)
a Pentium 166 MMX (1997)
a Pentium II 300 (1998)
an Athlon 600 (2000)
and now an Athlon 1200/266 (2001)

so that makes 9 .... wow. I'd never added them up before.

That's disgusting!!

Hello,

The computer's I've had are as follows:

1) 80486DLC 33 Mhz
2) Amd5X86 133 Mhz
3) Intel 120 Mhz with intel chipset
4) AmdK6-II 300 SIS chipset
5) AmdK6-II 500 another SIS chipset
6) Athlon 600C Amd 750 chipset (Current system)

3 operational:

1. Duron 700 @ 900
2. PII 350
3. Amiga 2000 w/ '030-25 accelerator

Yes, the Amiga 2000. It's being used to subtitled anime. Best damn subtling computer there ever was.

My computer history:

TRS-80 Model 1 Level 1 (4K) (tape backup)
TRS-80 Model 1 Level 2 (16K) (tape backup)
Apple II+ (32K) (floppy, yeah)
Apple IIe (128K) (first computer bought)
FatMac (512K)
386-25
P-120
P-350
Duron 700

Commodore 64 (currently in peices in my attic)
Gateway 2000 486SX/33, upgraded to DX/66 (almost completely stripped for scrap metal)
Micron PII 350, 128 MB, Voodoo3 (currently using as a backup)
IBM ThinkPad 1720 - PII 266, 128MB, 13.3" TFT (a great toy I use for business and trips)
AMD K6-2 400, 160MB (my server, runing Win2K Advanced Server--very reliable)
(2) Micron Pentium 75, 24MB (great little machines to mess around with)
Dell Inspiration 3800 - PIII 500, 128MB, 14.1", DVD (currently out of my possesion)

and of course my current "baby" ---
AMD Thunderbird 800@800, 256MB PC133, TNT2, 40GB ATA100, SuperServer Case(very cool!), and my monster 19" ViewSonic (E771B) monitor along with my Cambridge Soundworks Desktop Theater 5.1 DTT2500 speaker setup(very good!)....

(EVERYTHING IS BLACK...it cost me a little more, but its worth it.)

Well I have 4 that currently run. And I am about to get another one soon. I got a nifty coupon from Dell for $75 off my next system. I was thinking of getting a descent one from them and then tearing it apart and rebuilding it.

The sad thing is that I have a sixth one, My UGR. But it doesn't run right now the mobo and proc lost in limbo.

You can get all of the juicy details in my other post in the "Anything Chat" Called "Shipping companies SUCK!!"

oh, hey now, my vote was wrong then!

computers I've owned....

Commodore Pet
TRS-80
286-12 1MB 210MB SCSI1 HDD 256K video card. (yay ISA)
486-SCL2-50 laptop greyscale screen

(the laptop is still around, but not in sue, and the rest are gone)

P-90 (was parents box, now its my network firewall/proxy running Win2K server)
P-100 (or something) working on getting it built. It should run.
P-133 (digital tower sucked shit, its gone)
AMD K6-266 worked for a while, junked it eventually. Traded for stuff
AMD K62-300 was my old box, now its my parents typing box
P2-350 soon to be my working bedside computer when I get it running.
TBird 800 - My box. I need to work it some more, get 2K running @ 1GHz on it

ok, my vote was wrong, that makes 11.
