5 PC components my childhood self never got to experience

I was 8 years old when we got our first "personal computer" — a Pentium 3 pre-built from HP known as "Brio". For around seven years, my brother and I squeezed all we could out of that PC, after which we finally convinced our parents to get us a custom PC. While that was the start of my ongoing tryst with PCs, it never reached a point where the younger me could fully experience the best that PC hardware had to offer, at least not until I was already in college.
