Nice thread. I could waffle on for pages and pages about my early PC experiences, but restraint is the key. It good to hear about the "early days" when PC's were exciting and new and the diferences between 286, 386, 486, Pentium were HUGE!!!!!
Your first modem and the upgrade to a blistering 56k. The sound quality of an 8bit / 16bit sound card. The change from Voodoo1 to Voodoo2. A CD Writer in your own PC, woooooooot!!!
It's a shame the changes are not the same. These days every little bit extra gets released and spoils the big changes to the extent nothing is amazing anymore.
