Your First Computer...

Here is a suggestion list[^] The First I used was a Teletype Terminal connected to a 360 and only had paper out put, no screen. Then a ZX80 Then a 380z The first I owned was a ZX Speccy 48K I loved the PET and the Amiga. Ah the nostalgia!

I had a Commodore 64 which I had for many, many years of my childhood and learnt to program on. Then I had a succession of PCs that I found less and less endearing in turn.

Same here. 48K looked like a lot of memory these days :)

I had a friend who saved for ages and ages and bought himself a VIC 20. About a month later the C64 came out and he cried for a week! He couldn't give the Vic away.

I had a huge Wang (don't go there!) given to me by a customer, who had upgraded to an IBM something-or-other. I later *upgraded* to a speccy.

I've just realised that still pronounce Vic 20 as "Vic venti" -- I was in Italy when it came out.

First computer I ever used was a Commodore Vic-20. First I ever owned was a Commodore 64. :) From there, I bought an Amiga 500. I had that for a long time then sold it after software became nigh impossible to find and got a generic 286 system. I miss my Amiga *sigh*. Flynn

I so coveted the Vic20 but by the time I could afford one the C64 was out and I thought that was kaka.

The first I ever used was at school. We had a few BBC micros with good ol' cassette machines for storage, and one that I can't remember the name of that actually had a 5 1/4" floppy drive! The science lab had a ZX spectrum but they only used it for playing games on so I never really got interested in that. The first I owned was a third hand Apricot with dual floppies. Boy did I make that thing work hard! Those were the days :thumbsup:

I think my brother still has his old 500 somewhere. He had the RAM upgraded to 1MB and it stopped playing some of his games, and if I remember the Workbench went a bit wierd, so it didn't get much use after that.

Not my first one, but the one my dad got for his business (he never use it though, someone else did). It was an IBM 8086, 128k RAM, and had 2 floppy drives and no hard drive. The screen was green, monochrome, not even CGA. The keyboard was made from what I presume to be cast iron or lead. And wait for it, it came with IBM DOS 1.10. And on that PC, at the tender age of 6 or 7 I wrote my first GOTO :) And then the keyboard broke, and I got banned from using it :(
