Forum :: Lounge :: What computer's were used when you was first at school?

When I was at school we used Acorn's. I cannot remember the precise model but it was one with floppy and CD drives and like a 1.5 GB HDD. RGB monitor's was used so early 90's time when I was about 7-8.

Prettymuch the exact same, but those cd drives look way too hightech for my first school xD

Yea, I read up that one was made in 1995 so it wasn't that one. It was defiantly the 90's but about 92.

We used Macintoshs. The icons on the desktop stuck to the right side, lol.

Also, I was the expert back in 3rd grade. "What did you do? How do I turn this thing back on?"

When i was on school we were using something like that:

I think it was an intel with 386 prossecor. We were learning MS-Dos commands like dir and dir/w

Something like that is the earliest I can remember (1999-2000ish). We also had the pretty colored ones that came out around the turn of the century.

Sorry about that! I usually check all my links when I post, I'll just post pictures.

Also, all the teachers had these laptops and I thought they were fantastic.

Started on a Macintosh Colour Classic in 1997.

Moved school several years later to one that had Apple eMacs and iMacs.

Started high school, not anything special, some generic machines.

Moved high school to a school that had more generic machines, and a couple of Power Macintosh G4 towers. There was also the stray odd Macintosh Performa 5260.

Moved high school again, this time to one that had half Omega built standard PCs, half Apple iMac (Polycarbonate) desktops. Eventually upgraded to Apple Aluminium iMacs in the art classes. Still had the odd iMac G3 and Power Mac G4 floating around.

When I moved up from elementary school, we had Dell computers. Everywhere. Laptops, desktops, SO MANY. All through high school and even now in college, most are Dell desktops. There are a few Macs but they're mostly in the photography/graphic design portions of school.
