That had 16K RAM, and a rubber membrane keyboard. I then moved onto a Commodore 64, in 1984, and got online in 1986. The following year I got my first PC, with 640K RAM, a 12 inch VGA monitor, and a 30MB Hard Drive. That actually lasted me right through until 1993, when I upgraded to a 386SX, so I could try this Windows thing (which I only wanted so I could see graphical web pages).

I've been in touch with computers from an early age as well. I can remember saving a whole bunch of money to get me computer. My parents told me if I could save half, they would pay the other half. And so it happened: I got me a commodore! Awesome stuff that was. Untill I bought my own, I always had to rely on friends to play around with computers. After the 64, it was an Amiga (still teh best machine ever build if you ask me!). From the Amiga I went to a 486. Man, I wore those machines down. Trying to learn about programming, always reading programming books when traveling to school/work. I also installen Linux somewhere in the 90's (don't really recall when exactly, but must have been somewhere around 95 I think). That stuff was sweet!<br><br>Oh and internet, man, I mis those modem sounds sometimes... Anyway, from being an enthousiastic hobby computer fan I am a full time software developer nowadays. So, made my hobby my job. What else could you wish for? Nice one. I've been in touch with computers from an early age as well. I can remember saving a whole bunch of money to get me computer.
