This is me with my first "computer". Clearly, a serious piece of hardware. And they worried that this thing was underpowered. I'm probably like seven or something in this picture, when my family lived in a house on a hill in Calgary. Maybe early 80s sometime.
I would also like to point out how *awesome* that outfit is I have on.
And to this day I still can't reliably get that bit of my hair to stay flat.
Anyone else remember their first computer?
If Im going to work for my dad off of my lap top I am going to need more than one monitor because this is just too much!!
Day 4
Waiting. These are just fun shots and absolutely boring and ho hum. I was waiting for my husband to finish up in a meeting he was attending. I was in the computer lab/room and took more than a few shots of stuff in there while biding my time.

One of my first transparent screens. The colors are way off. It's a bit out of alignment. I think I got the alignment figured out - just have to work on matching the color beter.

This NeXT Cube was a door prize. I didn't get it :(
East Coast Vintage Computer Festival, July 2001
Massachusetts
If an untidy desk is associated with a chaotic mind, then it's no surprise my head's fuddled recently.
One day, I'll actually buy a computer that is ready to go the instant I turn it on. One that doesn't require four hours to fight with the OS over whether there's a wireless card inside and, more importantly, which one is it.
(Oo, even better. Once I finally finished? The inverter for the screen died. So I have to replace that, too. Whee! Thank goodness for eBay)
Casio PB-2000 pocket computer from mid-1980's. This was new/old stock in perfect condition. In my opinion, this is the best Casio ever made (aesthetically speaking anyway).

That's Elysion on the left: a Dell XPS computer with a Pentium 4 HT CPU, 3 GB RAM, some 500+ GB of hard drive space, 2 CD/DVD drives (one burner, one reader), and an OBNOXIOUS number of USB peripherals, running Windows Vista Ultimate.
On the right is the new Ryo-ohki, my Acer Aspire netbook: with it's 10.1 inch screen, puny Intel Atom CPU, 1 GB of RAM, and a 160 GB hard drive split into two partitions - one for the default Windows XP that came with the machine, and the other for Ubuntu Netbook remix (which boots now by default).
Ah, the amazing march of progress and technology!!
