  • First Family Computer

    I thought this was amazing. We set this up in the family room. We had AOL dial-up internet that took FOREVER. I was one of the first of my friends to have a computer. I really thought I was something with this dinosaur.
  • First Personal Laptop

    My parents got divorced, so I didn't have the dinosaur desktop for long. However, a few years later, I did get my very own personal laptop computer. Now compared to the huge desktop that my family had a few years ago, I thought this was small and fragile. Compared to laptops today, this things was huge!
  • College Laptop

    Once I moved to college, I got myself a nice 2-n-1 tablet and laptop. It lasted my whole undergrad. I absolutely loved that computer, because it was the best for watching Netflix with the Tablet feature! I still think about that laptop, but it finally bit the dust after graduation.
  • Adult Laptop

    Now that I have "adult money", I went and bought myself something a little more expensive. I now have a MacBook, and I'm not sure that it's worth all the hype. It took a lot of getting used to.
  • Work Computer

    I work in education now, and now work on a double-monitor desktop and love it. I haven't had a desktop since I was a child, but I really like it. I think my next in-home purchase may just be a desktop computer.
