Yep... my Uncle was an engineer @ IBM world headquarters in New York. So we had a really cool IBM AT, one of those God awfully heavy machines made out of solid metal... and that iconic IBM monitor. Those really were awesome systems; I remember doing a CGA upgrade on that PC... 

Later came a Tandy that sucked, but my parents paid big bucks for... ugh. Had to use it for waaaaay too long.. ran a couple BBSes on that rig anyhow; and it served me well for running that same BBS when I did upgrade to a 386 and then 486 machine. By that point, I knew everything and was a super computer hacker and was always into the next best thing... 

Man I miss those times.
