When my gig-and-a-half get filled up, I start remembering sixteen megs..

I’ve clogged up my computer again. It had half a gig of RAM, and now it has one and a half. And I still mannage to overburden it with browser tabs, chat windows, and a relatively small text editor. Antivirus disabeled since I could remember. I think I know what I’m doing. Dropbox. And that’s it. Nothing’s hogging up my memory, I’ve checked. Still, sometimes, it takes a number of seconds to switch between opened programs or even browser tabs. All that brings back the nostalgic feeling working on a 486. Wich reminds me of working on a 386. There was firts colour, so to say, on the 386. No, no there wasn’t. The 386 was only faster than the 286, but stil had a monochrome Hercules monitor. And so I remember the 286, my first PC. Prince of Persia, DOS 5.0, Norton Commander, Block Out. Basic. I wrote some simple code when I got tired of all the games. I was 14 if I remember correctly. The PC had crappy graphics. Not even a hard drive when I got it. Amiga 500 on the other hand kad kick-ass games! One to four floppy games that were unbelievebly addictive. Those were the days when I remembered how cool the games on the ZX Spectrum were.
