My first computer was a windows 95. I got it when I was 4 years old (Basically when it first came out.)

My first computer was a Commodor 64 computer it came out in the early 80's and the built in software was basic if you wanted to do anything you either had to program it in, or buy it on a Card

In 2 months I had a jell pad TRS80 that worked for a week and then I purchased my first computer, a PC XT 8088 that was very expensive, used for learning this newly available technology. I did get to learn BASIC and early batch file programming then I upgraded my hardware as needed until I started buying them from DELL.

It wasn't my computer, it belonged to a friend. But I was hooked on computers from then on. Anyone remember the old Radio Shack TRS-80? a.k.a. trash80 lol
