I installed Windows XP on my iPad just to play Pinball and Mario 64 at the same time, and the internet went mad

2004 was a seismic year for many. Facebook launched in February, music artist Usher released his now-iconic single "Yeah!", Shrek 2 came out in May, and Spider-Man 2 followed in June. For me, though, 2004 marked the first time I built a PC.

I still remember the specs: 120GB storage, a GeForce 5600 graphics card, 512MB memory, and a 17-inch TFT Monitor. The main aim of this PC was to play Half-Life 2 once it was released in November. Fun fact: I even emailed Gabe Newell, CEO of Valve, the company behind Half-Life, to ask if my PC would run the game well. He assured me it would, and indeed it did.
