Now the subject, that brings us all together : computers
I got in touch with them when my cousin wanted to buy an Apple II and my father bought it for him - but it stood in our house for a few weeks before my cousin got it. (They weren't out of date within a week then ;-)
That is when I started to learn Basic.
A few years later a friend of mine got a C=64, THE Home-Computer at that time. I later got one myself but long before that I worked on friends' 64s.

But then, when the first 80386 showed up and more games were available (sound entered the PC onboard a Soundblaster) I had to have one.
When the PC was there (christmas) we were a little disappointed since it was only a 286-16 with 1MB RAM and a monochrome screen. But we wanted VGA and 2 MB RAM (we had no clue it was no good in a 286 ;-).
Well, we got it.
Then I started to learn Pascal at school. So I had something to tell my dad as a reason to get a faster computer ;-)
