22 I didn't see anything new and shiny until I had the money to buy it
23 myself...Though we did get a Tandy RLX1000 when I was five or six.
24 When I was (I think) 12, I spent my $200 in savings to buy most of a
25 second-hand K6-200 when the original owner was upgrading to (I think)
26 a Celeron 300.
