IBM PS/1 (#3)

Picture of IBM PS/1 Then my teachers conviced my parents to buy a real PC at home, because I could only play at school. My father bought the cheapest PC he could find: an i80386SX 16, 2MB, 40MB. I was very happy and continued programming in IBM- and later Q-Basic, but most of the time I was playing games like Prince of Persia and Wolvenstein......

CPU intel 80386SX 16MHz
RAM 2MB or 2048kB
video VGA (256kB?)
sound PC-speaker. Terrible compared to my old MSXes.
I/O 41MB harddisk (compressed: 60MB)
1.44MB 3.5" floppy drive
input PS/1 keyboard and mouse (2-button)
ports 25pins parallel printer port, 25pins serial port and 2xPS/2 for keyboard and mouse
monitor 12" VGA monitor (max. 640x480)
size small desktop case (see picture)
software DOS 6.0 + Windows 3.1

Currently: The poor thing died. My parent are still using the old DeskJet 510 though, and I'm still happily using the keyboard and monitor on my Gateway.
