    We (my brothers and I) got a PC compatible 286 with 128Kb RAM, 43MB HD, 5 1/4" diskette unit... and yes, no mouse, no webcam, no wireless (to what? there wasn't commercial Internet back then:p). The term LCD didn't exist either and thus our monitor was a bulky thing always protruding from the desk lol... still we learned quite some stuff there and my youngest brother and his friends played Prince of Persia as if there were no tomorrow... now he works as a software tester, so was it useful? You bet.

    Packard-Bell 486 dx2, 525 mb HD, 8 mb ram, 14.4 modem, 14 in monitor and a Canon printer. That whole setup was $2400 in 1995. 2 years later, I bought a 2 gb HD for $200. Laughable by today's standards. Can't even imagine what's in store another 15 years down the road.
