Hello everyone! This might be the first post where I am addressing you personally. Today I wanted to talk to you all about my experience with technology. I think this will be especially interesting for some as I am one of the many people who has seen multiple revolutionary changes in technology within my lifetime. Today I will be taking you through the different computers/laptops I have owned and operated on over a long period of time. Here we go:
Computer 1: Dell Dimension XPS R400@400MHz 256MB RAM VINTAGE COMPUTER PENTIUM II
This was the first computer I remember ever using. The primary usage of the computer was to play games (keep in mind I was about 5)
Computer 2: Lenovo ThinkPad
This technically wasn't mine. My father got it from his office for working on the go. It was at this time I was first exposed to the many different capabilities of Excel. This was truly one of the first machines that sparked my love for software and hardware. It was at that time truly amazing to me how the capabilities of the huge desktop I had in my room was compressed into this portable machine. My age at this time was around 7 - 9.
Computer 3: Dell Studio XPS 1647 Laptop. Core i5, M430,4GB, 320GB HDD, Win 10
This is the piece of technology I currently use. I use it for multiple purposes and originally got it when I started taking computer science seriously as a possible career option. I've made apps on it, written programs and done a lot of multi-tasking. To me, it is truly a work of art and every time I open to work on it, I am just a little more inspired (hence I think the name Inspiron is apt).

My family paid $1000 for this machine. At the time I felt that technology couldn't get any better and that software had peaked. I had it from 2010 to 2016. I learned how to code for the first time on this device and even though it is outdated, it still holds a special place in my heart.
Computer 4 (My current machine that I love): Dell Inspiron 13 7000 Series 2-in-1 Laptop
