My first computer was a Gateway, which ran Windows 95 and most of the time I used to play free Mircosoft demos that came with it.Comment

My first computer, or actually our family's first computer was an Amiga, but I can't remember which model. I used to play James Pond 2 on it.

I think dad had a RS TRS99, played with that as a kid. My first computer was a 386SX in college, wasn't long before it was swapped out for a 486.
Year or so ago I was in conversation at work with my geek coworker (he hacks his smartphone etc). He didn't have a clue what a 386 etc was! To be fair I haven't a clue about the latest machines either.No Silicon Heaven? Preposterous! Where would all the calculators go?Comment

My first computer was an Apple IIe. I remember booting it up like it was yesterday. The those nice loud screeches. Then the WHOOSH as it lights up.

The first one I ever used was an Apple IIe in school (learning Turtle!); but the first one I owned was an Apple IIc. Got it for my 6th grade graduation. Pulled it out for my oldest son (now 14) a couple of years ago and it still works! He's even learned some Basic in it.Comment
