Doom 2 finally made me demand my parents the upgrade happen to the 486. #spoiledkid
My brother came home with a 486 50 with a Cyrix processor.
Good times were had that summer indeed.
Ha wow Cyrix. That's a word I haven't heard in 15 years. We got a top of the line 486 DX4 100 but it was right when the Pentium came out and was basically obsolete as soon as I got it but I got into plenty of trouble with that computer. I got caught brute forcing aol accounts over dial up and since there were no real laws at the time my parents just screamed at me after the county DA called the house and threatened to take my computer away. That didn't last very long and I somehow wound up with an upgrade to a Pentium 3 with a first gen cable modem out of the whole situation 😂
