Computers I own(ed)

Over the years, I have used these computers for work on my projects like programming, hacking, chatting on the IRC and also to play video games, in exception of the Sun Enterprise which was a server.

I mainly used Intel/AMD PCs and laptops for the daily work but, during some periods of time, I also used the Amiga 1200T and the SPARCStation 20 as the main workstations.

Amiga featured very well: On that time I was running an ISP company and doing all the administrative work on the Amiga: email, managing control panels, SSH, IRC support, etc. AmigaOS multitasking was great. The SPARCStation 20 was not doing bad but the pkgsrc package compilation was a hell.

The best workstation setup I ever had and still have is a Linux Debian laptop.

IBM PS/1 80286 @ 10 MHz. 1024 KB RAM. 30 MB HD. MS-DOS 6.22 Wordperfect, Norton Commander, Gobliiins, Alone in the Dark, F29 Retaliator, La Abadía del Crimen, Lemmings, Monkey Island… (still owning it, in my basement)
Amiga 1200 68030 @ 50 MHz. 128 MB RAM. 4 GB HD. AmigaOS 3.5 Directory Opus, YAM, AWeb, AmIRC, Deluxe Paint, SCALA. + Games, tons of games. I still play games on it.
