Your First Computer

[1066gull]

Inspired any the Win 98 data stick thingy called a thread.

What was you first operating system you ever used?

The first one I used was Windows 3.11 for a few weeks. Being 8 I think, I was the most computer literate of the family, and bugged my parents to get a computer, but my Dad realised he needed it for his business.

So he ended up buying a second hand 3.11 processer with small requirements. It was piss.

We than got a Gateway PC which was an improvement on 3.11 lets say.

You?
