My first PC was a Texas Instruments TI99/4A. The first computer I ever used at school was some kind of commodore VIC thing at primary school in about 1981. The first PCs I used in secondary school were ZX spectrums and ancient IBM PCs around 1984, no HDD. BUT, I can also remember, around 1988-89, browsing BBS's with my fairly well-off mate on some old Apple.
From the TI99/4A I went on to own a BBC model B (Elite mmmmmmm), an Amstrad cpc464, Commodore Amiga, Apple classic 2 (For uni).... various IBM compatible PCs...
Personally, the first time I REALLY used the internet was around 1992 with an apple mac, using gopher etc.
I first got the internet at home in about 1994. Signed up to compuserve... boy did I regret that!
