Oh my, my first computer was an Apple in 1983 0r 84. It used BASIC language. My first windows-based computer was in 1989. So, WOW, my first computer use occured over 20 years ago. Darn I am getting old

In 1984 was the first time I used a computer and was signed online. I was using a Apple II computer system.
Things have changed a great deal since then in the computer/internet industry. It's amazing how far we have come through the years but what's even more amazing is we have only touched the tip of the iceberg.

The first time was the computer at the public library about 25 years ago. We loved using print shop. We'd go at least once a week and make greeting cards, signs, and banners. Of course they printed only in black ink and were so pixelated, it's funny to think of how bad they looked compared to what you can do now.

i think i first used a computer 15 years ago when I was still in high school. We were still using DOS that time which is, i think, a little bit hard compared to microsoft which we are currently using. DOS was a bit confusing. I could still remember that we use those big floppy disk about 5 x 5 incehs in diameter... and now, we cannot use those kind of disks... technology is really changing fast.. we now have diskets, cd, and flash drives which can store more files.

I can really relate to this! I was in high shool also and it seems that our section, being the top section was priveledged enough to have a 1 hour computer class thrice a week. 2 students per computer. I was so amazed that we can type,print and save. You know in high school there's so many reports every grading period and it was a relief then because I can edit my documents/files not unlike when I done/typed it in a typewriter... plus u can print another copy instead of using a carbon paper... hahaha

Wow it was so long ago. I remember the first time I used a computer was in 7th grade. Then the next time I used it was when I had finished high school when I got my pc in my own home for the first time. They weren't that big in school as they are today.
