You know you are old when.

I was late to the game in owning a computer. My first was a 33Mhz 386 with 4MB of RAM and a 100 MB hard drive (and two floppy drives).

Now, my laptop has 4000 times as much RAM and my hard drives have well over 30,000 times the capacity.

Remember needing to flip DIP switches to make sure peripherals didn't confuse each other?

Wow, you were late!  My first computer was a Commodore PET.  It had 16K of RAM, a cassette drive, a monochrome screen. 

But, I had a big box that was an 8K graphics add-on, that gave me the option of memory mapped 320x200 monochrome graphics (as opposed to just 40x25 character graphics).  If not used for graphics, it could add to the main memory.

I wish I owned the floppy drive, but that was a great machine for learning.  I later got an Apple II+, which was also nice for learning.  I started to write a number of games for that one using a macro assembler, but never finished them.  I did have some good tech demos, though.
