I still have the first machine(s) I purchased a VIC20, then a NorthStar
(gone but replaced if that counts), Timex in box, then a COMPAQ
luggable, next a COMPAQ 286 Desktop unit, then a Packard Bell 486sx,
and after that several clones.

How many people on this list still have their 1st
computer? second?
third?
every computer you ever used/owned?
The first computer I ever used was a IBM 360 via punched cards in
Fortran.
First I ever sat in front of and worked on directly was an IBM 1130
via
selectric console running a French version of APL.
First I ever owned was a Apple II, which I still have. Same for the

Starmax 4160, and
