Tell us how long you've been a Micro Center customer......

Without telling us how long you've been a Micro Center customer.

For example, I've been a Micro Center customer long enough to remember when the free flash drive coupons were for 256MB flash drives, and that was a big deal!

Pastelle

Long enough to realize I have no hope of getting anything from here due to shipping and placement of locations.

All the computers had a version of Windows that was pretty much universally hated.

JimBob

My friend and I went to the new, single-wide storefront at the back of Lane Avenue Shopping Center after we got a phone call that Micro Center actually had a computer on display.

Lorence

My friend took me there to pick parts for my first PC. I can only remember the CPU which was an Athlon XP 2400.

@JimBob you took it back, way back to the Lane Avenue Microcenter. Good stuff.

The Micro Center in Madison Heights, Michigan opened in 2002.

I was able to get a mobo for a penny when I bought my Phenom II X4 840 processor... (It still operates, btw.) I've been a fan, ever since.

I bought my Apple ][ from the Lane Avenue store.

I remember the days of buying 4MB 72Pin RAM to upgrade a 486 so I could run an upgrade to windows.. Oh yeah and remember "Westerville, OH store" :)

I've been a Micro Center customer so long that I got catalogs in the mail from MEI/Micro Center selling bulk floppy disks and printer ribbons.

PhilLI

When you were making a copy of windows office and needed to buy more 3.5" floppies.

Delmar

I've been a customer since the Sharonville, OH store opened. I was there on opening day. They were giving out Microcenter Coffee cups.

When I was in college, I used to get a MEI/Microcenter catalog in the mail to my dorm room and would buy 3.5" and 5.25" Floppy Disks in bulk packages of 25 for about 14 cents per disk. The Campus Bookstore charged about $2.50 per disk back then.

I still have my Microcenter mug from the week the Paterson, NJ store opened. The first two machines I built from parts bought in the store used Intel Q6600 processors.

Bob777

Since before the IBM PS/2 was released although I did buy an IBM PS/2 Model 30 (a blazing fast 4 Mhz 8086) and a Plus Hardcard (20 MB) when they became available. All at the store near the OSU Campus. BTW, I still have the PS/2 (and matching 8512 monitor) and they still work just fine.

My first Micro Center purchase was a 160 MB IDE drive from the Fairfax, VA location.

Scook

So long that I remember mail ordering printer ribbons for my Epson MX-80 dot matrix printer. All well as floppy disk and other supplies.

jojesa

I've been a Micro Center customer long enough, that when I visited the parking lot was under construction.

Kenputer

I've been a Microcenter customer since 1mb of RAM was more than you needed.

lupinesithlord

386 sx 20mhz 2 megs of ram 30 meg hard drive was the upgraded one. 4 megs of ram wouldve cost another 400 bucks. windows 3 (x)

madmat

Long enough that I was buying parts for my 939 a64 build the first time I went there

shemac

My first computer from Microcenter had a Pentium cpu, 8MB RAM and a 1 GB HDD with Windows 95! :-) Oh and a sound card/14.4kbps modem combo card.

MacvsPC_thewarison

1st Gen iMac...that's all I got to say. Always Marietta, GA location.

Darkvader75

Strolled in to buy 1MB of V-Ram for my Cirrus Logic 5430 Onboard PCI video.

StephenGunn

Long enough to know its the best with a huge variety and only place i will be shopping for ANY electronics.

Mongo

I didn’t find micro center until 3dfx was making cards, but I’ve been a customer ever since

madscientist42

Ever since you opened up the Dallas area Storefront in Richardson. When I consulted in Colorado, I'd come down from the Longmont area down into Aurora to that location.

Since the Razer Boomslang release.
