Let's see...
There was the TIMEX SINCLAIR (remember THAT ONE?) We actually only had that one for a few days and returned it.
Then I believe my very first "real" computer was the TI 99/4A (thank you Mr. Cosby...lol)
Then the Atari 800XL
Then a TANDY PC...an actual 8086-based PC!!
Then I think I bought my first PC on my own...a Micron Pentium-based machine (now known as MPC and now out of business...they spun off from Micron the chip maker).
Then I built my next handful of PCs over the years...and my current PC I did not build...it's an Alienware from Dell...
Ahhh...the fond memories of a Geek...

A friend's parents had an Apple Lisa. Of course being teenagers we used that cutting edge technology to draw dirty pictures on it.
I got an Alienware now too, basically because I can and building your own isn't the good deal it used to be. Does yours get a little flaky rebooting after updates? Had several times where i had to do a system restore because some update was causing it to lock up.
