In the summer of 1991, I sold my car and used most of that money to purchase my first PC. It was a Comtrade brand 80386DX/33 system for ~$US 2,000. I …

Yesterday's $26 acquisition from a local online business liquidation auction was an untested Twinhead Slimnote 5100t laptop. (486 DX4/100, 32Mb RAM, ~800Mb hard drive).
