Although I used to play some games on a XT in my dad's office, my
first home PC was a 286/12 MHz with 512K RAM, 20 MB HDD and a
paperwhite VGA. This is when I got acquainted to raytracing, compiling
and running the sample raytracer from a book called "3D Raytracing and
Animation." It was very limited, but at the time, all I was thinking
about was chrome spheres.

Ah, those were the days!
