[QUOTE="The Goblin King, post: 1594386, member: 10970"] You mean we can't talk about our old computers? I have had a computer (no joke) as long as I can remember. This is due to my father who is also a computer hobbist. Whenever he got a new one I got the hand-me-downs. My first computer was a Vic 20. It used cassette tapes for memory. Then there was the Commodore 64. This one used cartridges for games but I also had 5 1/25" disk drive. I then moved up to an 8088. It had a 2400 baud modem which I discovered could reach something called a BBS. My love for CRPGs was born but it was not till much later that I would play pen-and-paper RPGs. Next came the 286, then the 486. The 486 had a much faster modem and I was introduced to something called the Internet. The upgrades come much faster now as I have learned to build my own boxes. I don't even remember them all but I currently have an intel 3.2ghz with 512megs of memory. I am afraid I can only recall less then 5 of my Player Characters. This is mainly due to the fact that I have only once played in a game that lasted longer then 3 sessions. It seems like I am perpetually making new characters, many of which never even see play.
