The first computer I ever owned was an Atari 130XE but this was my first PC. The memories I had of this computer and the numerous upgrades I put into it over the years are incalculable. So many games and I learned everything about DOS and Windows on this machine. It went from a 286 to a 386 to a 486 to a Pentium and it wasn't until I upgraded to a Pentium II that I actually built a whole new system and stopped using the tank of a desktop case (not a tower) this machine came with.
