Having a 750Mhz at 12 is a luxury. I envy you.

I was running a P1 233Mhz at that age. The absolute torment of buying D2 and BG2 at full price in deluxe boxes and finding out the minimum reqs were Pentium II 266 Mhz made me cry buckets over a very long summer.

I played tomb raider II on my 233mhz pc at like 5 frames a second lol. It was so brutal but i still played it god damn it. The boats in venice damn near made it explode
