Never owned an Apple, but did own a TI SR-52:


What was your first personal computer, Jim?


The first one I bought was a 286 clone for the oldest son.

(I was using a VAX780, at Omnicomp/GenRad, at the time ;-)

Though I had used a 386 at Sperry when I consulted there.

I later bought a 386 clone (with 387 co-processor) for myself, 40MB
hard-drive and extended RAM.

I currently run on two (clone) PC's with AMD Athlon 64 Processors
(4000+) with 1GB/80GB-HD ("Communications") and 2GB/130GB-HD (PSpice
machine).

Dual ViewSonic VA912b LCD Monitors, on an Extreme Miniview 4 Port KVMP
Switch, LinkSys 8-port router, Motorola SB5120 Cable Modem, Cox HSI
Premier, hp LaserJet P2015dn, and hp OfficeJet Pro K850 (B-size).

I'm about to install several APC 1500VA UPS's.
