PowerMac 6100/60 8MB RAM, 250MB HD. Really wanted to get the Performa version with the built-in CD-ROM but CompUSA didn't have any so we bought the Apple Multimedia Kit which included the Apple 300e SCSI 2x CD-ROM and the Apple Speakers. Apple 15" Multiple Scan CRT monitor. Ran it at 640x480 with millions of colors most of the time but did experiment with 800x600 with only thousands of colors on occasion.
Really wanted to get the DOS compatibility card too, but I'm glad I never did. Upgraded the RAM within a few months from the original 8MB to 16MB for a couple hundred $ I think. Maxed it out to 72MB a few years later when SIMMs were cheap.
I got so into computers and technology because of that computer; learned so much which in turn got me to where I am today. Apple truly did change my life.
