Good stuff right there!
My first personal rig was a Pentium 133 MHz Thinkpad laptop - should have appreciated it more, computers were still expensive back then. Did get Mandrake and Red Hat loaded on it at some point.
Pentium III 800 MHz was my first tower build - burned it up from inadequate cooling.
AMD K6-2 beige tower got me through college. Elder Scrolls 3, 4, and tons of torrented anime fansubs.
And of course I raided the file boxes full of zipdrives too - got me started on a backup habit (rotating/duplication) that persists to this day.
