Noticed on another thread people ralking about their old computers and comsoles, so I thought I'd give this thread a bump for people who hadn't seen it!
For me, the first computer I had was a Spectrum 48K, and it's still the one I probably had the most fun out of!
The games (on cassette - easy to copy!) were often utterly insane and completely impossible. Great ones were of course Manic Miner, Jet Set Willy, Rainbow Isla, nds, SKooldaze, Dynamite Dan, all the Dizzy games, all the Monty Mole games... Here's a link to the top 100 games ever for the Speccy, for those who want to reminice

After the Speccy this was like having an arcade machine in your living room!
Full colour, proper sound, "quick loading" disks, and (grat stuff!) still easy to copy games! Loads of brill games there too: Blood Money, Speedball 2, Kick Off 2, Sensible Soccer, Lotus Turbo Challenge, Alien Breed, Flashback, Syndicate... Top 100 here:

Now I've got the Nintendo Wii, and it's alright I suppose!
