Computer was a long dread

My first computer was not that powerful. It was an e machine which I bought at circuit City, when it was around here.

I bought the e machine in 1998, when I was going to Pima Community College. I used the computer to type up all my papers that I did for Pima Community College. I attended a writing class there and every week they had a writing assignment, which I excelled in.

I also used to play Doom on the computer. It was a shareware copy, which meant it was on a floppy 💾 disc and I had a shotgun and had to kill monsters in the game. I had to kill them before they would kill me, which most of the time they would kill me, but it was great fun killing monsters with a pistol or a shotgun.

Back then, we had Aol dial up which was internet but a lot slower. It used to have to connect to the telephone and dial the number and connect. It would say a wacky line”You got mail.” My step father used to come into my room to surf the internet, when I was asleep (late at night) and that wacky one liner”You got mail,” with the whole start up of Aol used to keep me up, which I had to get up early for college. Thank God, I moved out, but now I am a night owl. I guess things change. Thank you for reading.
