Computers



This is a list of the computers I have owned, in the order I acquired them. The Apple IIgs was my first computer, and I'm currently using an AMD K6-2 400.

I really like computers, and I seem to buy a lot of older computers, most likely because they are cheaper than new ones.

In a publicity stunt to promote their web server and backend (rear end?) SQL database, Microsoft put up their "teraserver" website. Unfortunately, it proved that their software can handle neither web traffic nor large databases. These are just a few of the pages I was served while looking around their website:

This is the page showcasing their webserver.
