My first year playing EQ in '99 I was in highschool. I didn't have a home computer, but a friend of mine worked at a LAN/card game shop. So I'd hang out there and play Magic and he'd let me use the computers for free. Those were good times. After closing shop around midnight a group of us (usually 4 or 5 people) would stay late until 4-5am playing counter-strike or grouping in EQ. Fond memories of 3am Freeti camps in solb and frenzy in Guk.
So I always did that on Fridays after school and most weekends. Those were Pentium II's, though I don't know the exact specs.
Around late Velious I finished HS and got a job and built my own PC. Don't remember mobo or specific parts, but it was some 2gig AMD processor, a 512mb video card, 1 gig of ram, and I had a 19in monitor. Was proud of myself at the time, haha.
