Whats the longest you've ever owned a computer

['Butterflies']

Yeah, it was my lame attempt at the kanye west MTV awards meme:

I had an Amiga emulator for one of my last PCs. I downloaded a lot of the old games I used to play. I'll have to downnload a new emulator when I get around to it.

I had a Spectrum emulator aswell. I loved Jetpac and Manic Miner. Even now I still like those two games

I had a mess around with an A1000 before. Was fun playing lemmings on it.

Oh yeah, I remember playing so much lemmings on the amiga!

Still have my Amiga 500, and it still works. 24 years since I bought it.

I've had a whole bunch of computers since.

New Zealand story was another good amiga game.

I loved Rick Dangerous. Very addictive.

Ever play Rick Dangerous 2

Or the classic, Xenon 2

Yes, tried both. Rick 2 wasn't nearly as good as #1. And Xenon 2 I think I reviewed for some mag. Fab game.

Speaking of computer games, I am playing currently Cities XL 2011. Despite its flaws, a game where you get to build your own cities in a 3D gridless environment with relative ease is a dream come true.

I have a netbook now, after my PC overheated and died. I wish I still had it now. GA has it in pieces at his house.

That was one of my favorite games as a kid and we always played it on the computer. But it had no music, only sound. But I remember playing it on the Sega Genesis (Mega Drive) and it had music and sound.

I also remember Wolfenstein. I played that a lot too until it quit working and it had no music either, just sound. But when I played it in Montana on the computer out there, it had sound and music. Then I was happy when I found out it was on the GBA so I bought it used and it was $4.99 I think it was. Or $9.99. I got to play all the other levels too than just the first ten levels or whatever. It was maybe a demo we had when I played it on the computer.


I still have Lemmings and I also have it for the PSP but it's basically the old game with updated graphics. I recently got Lemmings Tribe for Genesis. I also have Wolfenstien for PS2, the newer version of it.

I was never a fan of computer games so I never played much of them, the ones I played were the ones we had at home. I still don't buy them. It's very rare if I do.

usually, i take a big fat drill bit to the C drive and put as many holes in it, as possible. that way i know nobodys getting anything on me
anyways, thats good advice

Wasteful; you could use it in your new build as additional storage.

well maybe yeah if you build computers. but i dont, and need to know without a doubt that its completely not recoverable

Even if you don't build your own - it's not hard to pop the side off the case, slot in the harddrive and connect two cables. The OS will take care of the rest.
