It's "How Old a Computer Hast Thou" you nut!
And, had my current one since 2001, though it was made in 1999. |

Hmm, well, I have a working C64 from about the 1983~84 time frame. A C128 from 1986, a few Amiga 500's from 1987 on, in various states of disrepair, but a couple of functional ones  |

| I had my Win95 OSR2 since 1998. The sales person told me if I waited a couple of months Win98 would come out. I should have waited. I guess I went ahead with Win95 because my old Win3.1's CPU burned out and I couldn't live another day without a PC. *sigh.* |

I've had my current machine since I built it in January 2002.
The oldest machine I have is a Commodore 64 from the early 80's. |

Pentium 1 233 mmx from 1998. It ran, along the years, Win98, Me and 2000.
Now it's only DOS, baby! |

Old thread is ooooooolllllllldddddd
Henyhoo, I have a Gateway Tablet Laptop, 1.7 mhz, 512 RAM [next paycheck I'll get more, maybe], gotten late 2006, and that's for most anything that I want to do, does most anything I want.
If I want some serious DOS gaming done though, I have an IBM Aptiva 486, 66 mhz, 64 mb RAM, circa 1994, and plays any DOS game I want if I try hard enough, |
