I remember in the late eighties / early nineties being Joe Cool with 4MB of RAM and a MASSIVE 20MB hard drive. I think I’ve developed a mental block about the price.

Had the Packard Bell Pentium 75 kit from Comp USA. Fing thing was $2700. Was big bucks for a 23 year old.

No way computer from mid 90-s would have a dvd drive.

Ahh fancy. Both the 5.25″ drive AND the 3.5″ drive. I’m guessing 4MB of RAM maybe?
If I recall, my Windows 95 CD had “extras” on it, and I think one of them was the music video for “Buddy Holly” by Weezer. Groundbreaking for the time!

The dvd drive is a bit anachronistic in this setup. A 4x Creative Labs cd rom drive would fit better.

I’ve seen many computers from this era, but never one that had a dvd drive along with a 5-1/4” floppy

I used computer in then 90s, I assume the thing under the screen is a sound unit? But what’s the thing with red buttons under that?

A mid 90s Windows PC was never, ever cool.

Mid 80’s computer setup was an Apple Macintosh and a keyboard.

I’ve always wondered what the orange toggle switches do?

What a stupid setup. I had monitor, keyboard, mouse and speakers and everything else off to one side or under the desk. Not this tower of shit.

The giant power bar really makes this elite. A power switch for everything

I love how we didn’t think at all about whether a component could or couldn’t handle the weight of the ones above it…

You need to update your Sound Blaster drivers.

This setup was my holy grail in the 90s. Especially that surge protector 😆
