On that computer our teacher used to make us learn typing. He would cover our hands+keyboard with a cloth..so we could not look down..!
yea, those discs went corrupt really fast.

The first computer game i ever played was Road rash
huh...it was a treat for my eyes and brain..in those days
Today kids are lucky enough to have their own pc even before they reach high school
haven't used Vista for more than 30 minutes in my life.
well..Lucky you. My office PC has it and how it has survived 2+ years without any reinstall and repair is still a mystery to me. Particularly after installing and uninstalling so much garbage over the years. And the system partition is just 20gb - system restore is on, hibernation is off and pagefile is on a deifferent partition.
1. How many of you have used the IBM Computer with DOS sitting on it?
Never, I am not THAT old!
2. Which was the first Operating System (OS) you have used ?
Windows 98
I don't remember whether my first interaction with computers was in school learning Logo / playing DAVE, OR when I saw a monochrome display with white texts (DOS) on it at my big cousin's room!
But I consider the origin of my Geek life at my Mausi's Pen 3, Win 98 computer, on which I used to play "Carmageddon II: Carpocalypse Now" and do C++ programming later on.
I do remember the Floppy drives, in which I used to carry "files" and used to store it like it was the most precious thing in my life! And I remember the Autorun virus that was a nightmare with those disks! Counting in MB's was A LOT those days.
I also remember the Sundays for which I always used to look forward to, not because it was the holiday. But because, it was "Internet Day" for me. And I used to plan each and every thing the whole week, for whatever I wanted to do in that 1 or 2 hours in the Cyber Cafe! Like, the content which I would write in the mail, and whom to mail (cousins).
Well, this may sound extreme Geek nature, but I had drawn (by sketchpen) a diagram of a keyboard, and used to "practice" on it, so that I can type faster in front of the actual keyboard in cafe!
Ah.. the good old days, of my childhood!
My first (and the one) "PERSONAL PC" was only when I reached college! That was/is Pen 4 with XP.
i even used to save webpages of thinkdigit forum into CDs and carry it home to view as reading it from there in that limited time was just out of question not to mention posting
Times have changed a lot....so am i
I don't Know why but i am not really proud of being a geek anymore)
