I was born in the early 90s, the first OS I used was Windows 95. I remember I got so excited over it. It was the shared family computer, a couple years later I got my own computer running windows 98, which I could play games like Starcraft and The Sims on.
Good times.
Ha…thats funny. Youngsters. Try a Vic20 as the first home pc.
Mine was a 386 megahertz that ran DOS.
Monkey Island was my favorite game and I loved the music
Lol, it’s funny how that work. I don’t look at myself as a youngster anymore (over 30) but I’m sure you do when you look back at your memories. 
And so would I if a 2000s kid talked about windows vista as his first.
I’ve always wanted to play that game. I was into collecting classic games in my teens, like Grim Fandango etc. Never got around to buy Monkey Island
I played all the Sierra games as well… Funny I’m not a gamer nowadays.
Games were definitely more fun as a kid, especially playing those games you weren’t allowed to play, like resident evil (for me) etc.
It was a Amstrad in the mid 80’s. Don’t remember much about it though. Much more memories of Amiga which came a little later.
This was the very first computer I used:
It was at my uncle’s office. I was about seven and didn’t really understand it beyond thinking it was neat. It connected to a mainframe, but I don’t know what OS.
My first computer was a Timex Sinclair. I also had an Atari 400, an Atari 600XL, and an Atari 800XL. I had a TI/99 with a PBox for a bit. A friend had one of those horrible Franklin Ace Apple II clones that I was jealous of. I had a Coleco Adam for an entire week. It had a notorious EMF surge when it was turned on. Didn’t go well with my pacemaker. I also had a Commodore 64 with floppy drive I got used.
I think that is it for stuff when I was younger. I also had various video game consoles.
Damn there’s a lot of tech vets here. You make me feel young (and I hope I don’t do the opposite to you)
ozy’s so old , his first home computer probably had tubes and ■■■■. May have even had some kind of crank start or something.
Funny you should mention that. I like audio kit with tubes.
It uses vacuum tubes for compressing audio - nothing like the sound you get from antique valves. I just upgraded it last month. I replaced the stock Chinese tubes with some Electro Harmonix 12AT7 EHs. It really opened up the high end.
1990 windows 3.0 16 mghz laptop with modem and dialing up to BBS systems making ascii graphics and racking up long distance phone bills. 1993 discovered the internet and the first browser 1993 started making web graphics and pages. Upgrade cycle every 2 years on hardware.
Radio shack tsr80 1986
Windows 98 but at school they had Win 95 and Linux.
I remember my parents bought a home computer when I was 7. It was all black and had a huge monitor. It was a Gateway that ran Windows XP. I can still hear the start up sound.
I played on that thing all the time. Even into my teen years. Club penguin, min clip, new grounds,funny junk. All so nostalgic.
I had a trs-80 as well, don’t remember which model but it was old when I got it.
