Computers!
Computers!
- When did you/your family get your first computer? I believe it was 1984.
- What type of computer was it? My dad worked at IBM and brought home an Portable PC.
- What were your favorite things to do on your first computer? I played Jeopardy and Wheel of Fortune on it with my mom, and I loved Facemaker. (It didn't look like the screenshot in that article; the PC's colors were amber and black only.)
- When did you/your family first connect to the Internet? 1992 or '93, I think? I first used the Internet to do research for my French class.
- How did you spend time online when you first connected?(sic) Research for class, and messing around on Yahoo. Also my totally sweet Geocities page.
