I think it came with 16MB RAM which was mind-blowing. I assume it came with Win 98 -- I did have a PC before that and ran Win 3.1 and Win 95 (and DOS). I never upgraded to Me, but my next computers did have XP which I used until just last year when I got Win 7.

Between '96 and '01, for 3 years in there I worked on a Mac at work.

BTW, I was using a GUI (graphical user interface) on the Apple // well before I got Windows -- I upgraded the mainboard to run GEOS in the late '80s.


I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey! tongue lol
