RIGHT! I just wrote a post saying the same thing! first Computer/Desktop I
actually BOUGHT was a Tandy 1000 SL, I was in High School. I had a summer
job and I saved as much as I could so I could buy my own PC instead of
sharing my Dad's!  This guy in a rich area, who used to call my BBS, gave
me a GREAT "deal' on a used Tandy! He was upgrading and let me have
his old one for 1500! It was only like 3 years old, and I forgot, but I
knew it was worth way more than that! I felt like I hit the lottory!  I
went to his house to pick it up, and I saw the NEW PC he just bought, If I
remember, he paid a little over 3000 for it! Wish I could remember the
name, but it wasn't Tandy and it was all black and SOOO pretty! He let me
play around with it for a bit, Man...I wanted to move in, and I wanted him
to adopt me!!  It was the first time I saw Windows in action!

When I finally left (It was over hr later!) I got to setting up my new PC,
and my 'new' PC was faster than my dad's, but slower than the guy I bought
it from, That's when I got into upgrading/overclocking!

...man... PC'ing back then was so great....
