Domain prices back in the day
I thought it would be interesting to find out what everyone paid for there first domain. I bought my first domain back in 2000, it was a .Com and cost me $25 for 2 years and that was even on sale.
Did you know this is the oldest domain >> http://symbolics.com/ |

I was 9 too. My family had just gotten their first PC: 8088 processor 4.77 mhz, 640KB RAM, 20MB hard drive and 4 color CGA graphics. That computer still runs today.
Seems like a long, long, time ago.

first site
1985? I was 1. 
Suppose I'm the noob, I just bought my first domain and space a few months ago from 1&1. I skipped a few steps and started with a CMS, Drupal. I primarily use it for my family to keep in touch, but the only active user other than myself is dear Grandma. Oh well. |

20MB hard drive! OH MY GOODNESS! My family got our first PC in 1986. It was an Apple IIC. Can't remember the specs but I know the printer was the size of my garage. LOL
We gave the PC away to our old neighbors and I wonder if it still runs. Knowing Apple products, it probably does. |

Correction: knowing old apple products. I don't know what happened, but it seems that the newer stuff gets, the shorter its life span... you know? D: |

Very true, although my iPod has lasted longer than any other mp3 player brand I've ever had. |
