Been playing with PC's since the early 80's I think were pre 286(not C64) and were only dos think they had EGA monitors the IBM and Apple computers.

Used to go the a computer shop and play the games on the way home from school.

I remember upgrading to Windows 95 from Window 3.1 using the 13 disk set, it was so magical. It's like a whole new world opened up. Now that I look back on it, Windows 95 blew huge chunks. :P

I got a Commodore 128 when I was six. Took me a while to learn all the quirks of GUI and various commands, but it was well damn worth it. It had a tape drive too.

When I was 4 or 5 or so we used to have a Kaypro I would play Sesame Street Learning Safari and Spiderman Graphical Adventure (a text based game that would slowly draw scenes of the screen to accompany the text). But I didnt really get interested in computers until I was 6 when my dad showed me a little Basic because I was up early and he wanted me out of his hair. From there, I taught myself all sorts of different languages and eventually started prying into hardware, and was totally hooked.

I was hooked onto SNES for a while until my friend showed me Warcraft. Then I bought Starcraft after we got our 98 and got hooked ever since. What really sucked was that my first computer was a mac.
