    My first was a Commodore 64. Didn't really like it even though I was a software engineer at that time.. didn't get another pc until the internet era.. Then the PC became the library of Alexandria..

      My first computer was the Macintosh Performa 6300CD. The single button mouse was something like $90 back then. The Encyclopedia Britannica it came with blew my mind.

        First program was on a Wang.. on punched cards.

        First PC was a Tandy 1000, 7.14Mhz
        Built my own from 1989 until 2014.

        No longer gaming, so OTC does everything I need for $500.
        I remember the Tandy computer. I use to ride my bicycle to Radio Shack and try to program it from books I got at the school library. I only got one program to work.

        I still remember the old teletype computers hooked up to Compuserve or some other computer service. I also remember making ticker tape.

        In my Junior year of high school, the math class got an Apple II computer with color screen.

            My first was an Apple II+ with a 5.25 floppy drive and an RGB monitor.. had if before the high school did and I think my parents paid over $2,000 for it. That's nearly $8,000 when adjusted for inflation.. yikes!!

              One of the VERY last, decent Macintosh computers!
