Well, the first computer I used was an apple II+, and a IIe after that. I have one of each now, but not the same model. My parents owned a TRS-80 color computer, then a Sperry PC compatible machine, neither of which I have at this point. They also had a "Leading Technology" 386, and a Compaq 486, neither of which I would want, since I have my share of that class of machine. The first computer _I_ ever owned was an AT&T Unix PC, and yes, I still have that. You could say that was my introduction to collecting "classic computers." It was more than 10 years old by the time I got it, and required some work to get it running. It was rescued from the trash. Its name is "Sprite" -- so called after the drink, since its green screen contrasted sharply with all other computers I'd seen recently (at that time). I was just working on it over this last weekend.
