How old were you when you got your first computer?
rms: Macintosh LC III. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macintosh_LC#.22Pizza_boxes.22 It was snappy enough with 36MB of RAM but the 80MB of HD was kind of killer. I was probably 7 years old when we got it and 10 when we maxed the RAM and bought a modem. I'm surprised that no one else had a Mac but my mother was a school teacher. I got a real computer at 13.
