Memory and solid-state storage prices surge

I only started with a 486 in 1994 which was obsolete only two years later. Upgrading to a Pentium was not exactly cheap and there were always hassles involved. Windows 95 also sucked.

I remember discovering true gaming happiness with the PSX in 1998 and I didn't play many PC games after that. Then PS2, 360, PS4, PS5.

For years, graphics cards were unaffordable and now it's RAM and SSD's. PC gaming has always been a headache and a money sink for most of its life span. I have a mini PC and a non-gaming laptop for work purposes and that's all I need. IBM never intended the PC to be a games machine in 1981 and we should have listened.

Gaming happiness with a PSX? That's a pity ;-) gaming on the PC was soooo much better, Doom, Doom 2, Half-Life, Command and Conquer, Quake, Age of Empires, Civilization and and and. PSX oh look wobbly graphics :-)
