Now I am waiting for the TRUE December Crew folks that finally get their email and have one of the following slacker issues:

 

1. Still never downloaded the game

2. Still running a 56K Modem because technology is so overrated

3. Posted here on the forum on a Mac waiting for the Mac version of the game

4. Hoping their Windows 95 machine with the 512K Ram and 1 Meg Video card may run the game on low res

 

Oh the memory...

56k modem?! Pfft, you early technology adopter you! My 28.8 gets the job done, and I'll upgrade it.... maybe.

Pfft, try running a Color64 BBS on 1200 baud on a C64, with the first ever networked forums via Usenet feed into FidoNet.

 

:D

Indeed lol, we could judge the age of posters by their memories of their earliest systems. My family's first was... something based around an 8088 I think. Monochrome monitor bathing me in soothing... greenish light.

 

The first "real" system I remember fondly was our 486 DX 50 (note, a DX, NOT a DX2 - I mocked the DX2 folks...) with 4 meg ram and a 200 MB hard drive. I upgraded that thing into a beast! Bought a second hard drive that was 345 meg for... nearly $400. You know, I still have that thing! And it works even! Added 4 more MB ram to a BEASTLY 8 meg.

 

And I played the hell out of Wing Commander I/II and Privateer.
