third? every computer you ever used/owned?
Well, my first computer was a C64, but my parents got rid of it many years
ago. My second and third machines, both early AT clones met the same fate.
All the machines I've owned since then I still own.
First I ever sat in front of and worked on directly
was an IBM 1130
via selectric console running a French version of APL.
I've got one of those consoles that was converted by its former owner into
a printer for a TRS-80 model 1. A very unique bit of hardware it seems.
