12" Screen: 200x165 pixels, monochrome; video memory 1k; no hard disk; 64k RAM; processor Z80A 2.0MHz; 2x 5.25" floppy disk units; 1 serial and 1 parallel ports; no ethernet, wifi or bt; no USB!!! The weight of the creature was around 20-25 pounds! I had 20x20 vision then. I played Robot Attack! in it!
Had hours of glorious fun!
One of my computers now:
Sufice to say that my eyesight is no longer 20x20 and I struggle with the 4.5" 1024x600 screen!
Now guess how long have I been around computers?
Life is not fair! (LOL! Just kidding!)

Trying to say the correct thing
Gotta be older than me since you mention first computer is that brick and @ University age P500's where about.
This is hard
25 years @ a guess? "hope i'm not way off the mark" my apologies if so.

You are flattering me! LOL!
Thanks! I feel a little younger now!
What am I doing in the middle of a group that average 15 years of age?
I guess the answer is that tech stuff is fun at any age!

That's cool
And your right technology embraces all ages, the average age has dropped as the price of smartphones has decreased "well that's my assumption"

Here was my first " computer " at college.
It was how I learned programming. You sat at your key punch terminal, punched a few hundred cards and then fed the stack into the punch card feeder on the right.
The Key Punch Terminal
Here is my first " Home PC "
It ran CP/M and TMP III and ( this was huge, why I bought it ) it ran MS-DOS.
Complete with a blazingly fast " dot matrix " printer, with a three ( yes three ) color ribbon.
4 years later I plunked down $3000 dollars and started my 32 year career as an Apple " fanboy. " Dual Floppy Drives " baby !!!
Am I old ???????

Hey punch cards, now I don't feel alone anymore.
Now of course I have my 400 terabytes in the basement:
​Mike
I'd say the OP is as old as me - so keep guessing folks!!​

Guess he is slighty older than me..
My oldest PC:
(mine had an extra 256 k RAM card: loads of memory )

Well mine was a Sempron 1.6ghz home build back in 2006.
First computer i ever used was this:
Amiga 1200
I think first used it when i was 3. It got given to a relative then i claimed it with the 3 boxes of disks in the loft.

Uhmm! SHE probably is!
University had an IBM PDP1130 the punch-card input; mainly used to program in FORTRAN. Had to wait in queue holding the set of cards for my turn to have them read and processed. Had an account with limited cpu time so had to get it right quickly. Results came via printout, no graphics interface. If you've dropped your pile for cards ... it was a little difficult to reorder them!

If there is indeed 2012, what would you do?

Hi all,
if there indeed is a 2012 event.. what would you do?
Do you think we will see something like this in our lifetime?
P/s i love the movie..
There will be indeed, according to Maya documents, but they talk about a consciousness change not about a disaster, which I believe in
I´ll try to be prepared

Tulum, México (Maya zone)
Im following Nostradaumaus on this one. Because it makes sense.
Put it this way, right now i feel im going to try to survive. But probably when it comes to it im going to be s*** scared!
Let's see...to prepare...
1. Make a simple boat
2. Create a machine that will make urine into drinkable water with materials such as a jug, seaweed, some aquarium air lines, and a pump.
3. Inexplicably grow gills so I's can breathe underwater
4. Rescue a little girl with a map to Mt. Everest, the only place to find dry land.
5. Have a mediocre looking chick name me Ulysses
All within a budget of $235 Million---Oh...wait...that's Waterworld...
I have faith that nothing that bad will ever happen (remember Noah and the rainbow?)
the mayans dont even beleive anything is going to end, their is no justifiable reason showing why the world will end besides some mayans who sacrificed to gods who do not exist
Don't worry It's just a movie...a darn good one
OMG!! People do believe this!!!
When entering millennium many people said that the world will end, but that wasn't the case!! However i do believe that the world will come to an end, just like it begun.
another one to add to the list of hoaxes:
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/33622934/ns/technology_and_science-science/?pg=1#Tech_Doomsday
Well the Earth does finish like a 10,000 Year wobble and the sun aligns with the center of the milky way, maybe the planetary alignment will cause something catastrophic.
Whatever happened with Y2K?
I think 2012/12/21 will be a bigger scare then Y2K...
i see whole 401k's being spent and the like.
But thats just me.
...
Well, being an ex-Honor science student, I can PROMISE you this:
- The Planet has undergone ATLEAST 4 Ice Ages. It is estimated that the cycles happen every 102,500 years. on 2012, it is believe to start the beginning of the Ice Age. People believe that Global Warming is cause by us, but this is not so. Everything again, Everything in the Universe works in Cycles and Frecuencies.
- The Magnetic Field is weakening, and when it gets to weak, it is possible that they swap, if this occurs, then earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tidal waves, and all are unleashed, and not to a minor scale.
- All this leads to an Ice Age. It won't happen overnight, some losses will occur, but humanity will survive.

THe magnetic poles have swapped in the past but I doubt this would be catastrophic. It might be inconvenient though as all our compasses will point the wrong way.
Global warming ... yes the climate does go in cycles but most scientists believe we are pushing things further than the natural cycle. Paul_Days is in the 1% that thinks this is not so. That does not make him wrong - it turned out the Earth wasn't flat after all...even though most people though it probably was.
For now I'll side with the 99% of scientists.
What was the Honours in BTW?
Well December 21, 2012, is the end of the Mayan calendar. And it is also my Mom's birthday. So I'll probably have a nice dinner with the family and get her a nice gift and laugh about all the stupid people who think the world is about to end... Right before the comet blows us all up

Welcoming our new overlords

Greetings, fellow meatbags.
It has come to my attention that we meatbags are losing more and more grounds to the silicone overlords. From Pamela Anderson's boobs, straight on to Gary Kasparov's inevitable defeat at the hand of Deep Blue, our race of meatbags was most recently and most emphatically beaten, thrashed and dragged through the mud in Jeopardy by none other than IBM's Watson.
What next, you ask?
Rock, paper & scissors
Yes, once the preserve of the playground's courts of arbitration and the ultimate decider of who should be "it", and occasionally the last word in auction arguments, Rock-paper-scissors (RPS) will now be played by the AI.
While we would like to think that a simple game with three possible outcomes would never be mastered by mere humans (or mere computers), NY Times, in collaboration with Skynet, has developed an AI which can ultimately predict and eventually beat humans at this game.
Now I don't feel so secure in my bunker any more.
that hunk of junk is no match for me. Played him on veteran to twenty and killed him, well beat him by 2 matches.

EDIT: 30-23-27 @ round 80

For those of you who are tempted...
Don't just go 20 rounds. The more you go, the more likely you will succumb to a certain pattern, so the computer's advantage is very obvious the longer you play.
Of course, if we hook it up to a learning matrix database, we'd be busted from the get go.
Also remember that this is done by the NEW YORK TIMES. Now imagine IBM getting down on this.

Looking for quotes for your book? Here's mine:
<QUOTE>
I tried WoW several years ago, and tried it again several months ago to see if it had changed, same **** different expansion pack. After a 10 Day free trial, 985 Terabytes of updates, 3,000 CD's and days of my life that I will never get back I concluded that WoW is: Complete horse **** and in actual fact offensive to games which are indeed horse *****.
*Several horses have complained about me comparing their **** to WoW.

My sister is stuck in a wheelchair, so I have to cook, clean, and take my nephew to and from school everyday. My nephew who is seven years old is autistic, so he's going for only part of a school day. I have to go get him at odd hours, and since I'm doing housework/cooking later in the day, I can't get a full time job. I have to deal with his moods and outbursts everyday. Taking care of him, his 11 year old sister (she's moody thanks to hormones) and his mother means I have no time for even part time work, so I'm constantly broke as a result. Since she is family and needs my help I can't move out and not have a guilty conscience. My sister's fiancee is a vile and mentally abusive person, and I get stuck dealing with him all the time. He doesn't even help with housework or the kids. We're struggling financially so our home internet and cable was unpaid and cut off, and we're still getting charged for it until the owing amount is paid. The only reason I own a nice phone is cause I saved money for months and signed a contract. My computer was built from free, salvaged parts, otherwise I wouldn't have one of those either. I have serious insomnia and never get proper rest. I also have back pain, anxiety and a whole mess of health problems despite only being 20 years old. I was forced to move into a different city cause of my sister, and now I can no longer see any of my friends. My situation at home prevents me from being able to have a girlfriend as well.
All of this is true, no exaggerations. FML
^^ That sounds about as hard as it gets. You have to believe that it can only get better from there!

I run a basketball league for kids and wanted to notify all players that practice was cancelled this past Friday because of the weather. Instead of selecting "Basketball" group in Gmail, I selected "All." The email was sent to about 800 people, including my professors, ex-professors, TAs, friends I haven't talked to in years, etc. - -. Most embarrassing moment of my life, so awkward.

Grump! (Grumpy Bump)......
This thread is long overdue and I'm sure I'll find a fair few things to rant about. (Once I'm back at work)
While I'm here though......
Why is XDA so dead at the weekends?
Meh, I guess the rest of you have lives
