My First Personal Computer
30 01 2008If I'm not wrong, I won my first Personal Computer in the year 1991 after participating in a writing contest in french and winning the first prize. It was the famous Commodore 64 like in the picture with a tape reader and few tapes containing some games and programs such as the main Operating System (I remember only the Ninja Game I used to play with).
I miss my C64 which I had to exchange few months later to get my first PC with a mouse, The Amiga 500. Check the details of the C64 in this link

Le mien ressemblait plutôt à ceci et j'avais quand même une souris:

Hello Marouen,
Great blog! I am currently a student at the University of Sussex in Brighton, England. I am pursuing an MA in Globalization, Ethnicity and Culture. I am a 25 year old male from Hawaii. I am traveling to Tunisia and I am hoping to be a volunteer for a local NGO. I am writing to because I found your blog during my search for possible volunteer opportunities in Tunisia. I'm wondering if you might point me toward a local NGO or other resource that might be able to put me into contact with volunteer opportunities. I will be in Tunisia from April 11 until April 25 (two weeks). I would like to volunteer for your NGO during my time in Tunisia if possible. Thank you for any assistance you can provide.
Hi Marouen,
I discover lately your blog, this post reminds me the Commodore64 age, mine was entirely in beige. I remember the first GameExpro in 1992 (@charguia). I bought a Commodore64 and I can't forget his famous 2D games in a tape (K-7) like Mario, Balderdash, Astronoid...
nice post. keep post like this...
Wow...this computer brings back memories. Have you tried selling it on ebay? It could be worth a small fortune.
Wow this computer keyboard brings back all sorts of memory. I used to own a Commodore 64.
Now that is a really old computer. They used to cost so much for very little computing power (by today's standards, anyway).
The Amiga 500 was a great computer back in the days.
I love the Commodore 64. It did all the basics such as games and programming but did not have an outrageous price tag.
I remember that personal computers were so expensive back in those days. My first computer was a Tandy from Radio Shack.
This post reminds me of my first computer, the Commodore 64.
The Commodore 64 was also my first computer. It was a wonderful machine back at the time.
My first personal computer was an IBM XT. It had meager computing power by today's standards and cost me over $3,000.
The Commodore 64 brings back many memories. I might pick one up from eBay to play with.
This is such a great story. I remember my first computer it was a commodore 64. This computer is so old.
The Amiga 500 was way better than the Commodore 64 back at the time.
My first computer was a Radio Shack Color Computer. It did the basic, such BASIC programming.
The Commodore 64 was a very versatile computer because it could use it to play games as well as do programming.
The Amiga 500 had superior graphics and the games were awesome.
The Amiga 500 was my first computer. It was a wonderful machine back at the time.
