• COMMENT: Following the untimely death of Big Bertha, my brother and mom let me get the PC of my dreams from Memory Express, with a price limit of $3,500 CAD. Instead of getting a prebuilt, I decided to pick out all the parts myself, which led to some mistakes like the RTX 3070 and 750W PSU, but the other decisions like the i5-13600KF and 64GB of RAM were genius, as over the years I would make use of all of it. When I purchased "Raptor", I gave this PC to my mom.

• COMMENT: This is what I consider my first real PC. My mom bought it from my brother as a gift when I was about 11 or 12, along with a new SSD, Stormworks: Build & Rescue, and BeamNG.drive. From day one, this PC was pushed to its limits. Almost everything I know today, like modding or making games, and more, I learned on that machine.
  
  That came to an abrupt end in November 2022 when the Power Supply literally exploded while I was playing a game.

• COMMENT: This was my first computer. While I hated it then, it taught me the basics of computers, and what not to do. It came pre-installed with what felt like every piece of software known to man. It was slow, but it ran Minecraft and barely Scrap Mechanic, the only two games I played at the time.
