More like about 18 years ago for me. I started with an old Apple IIe, followed by several other Apple models. Then I switched to DELL and finally to a Toshiba Wireless Notebook. Every one had good points and bad points, but, since I consider myself somewhat of a technological dummy, I won't share them because most of the bad points were probably due to my own ignorance. I suppose you might say I am a computer addict.

if we are talking other computers other than a pc then i started using a computer in 1988 when igot an atari 65xe which was for games really with a tape player and it took the best part of half an hour to load a game on it lol and then eventually i bought a 5.25 disk drive for it and games would load a lot faster.

Hi, I think it was about 12 years ago, it was a 286 and ran Dos 6 and wordperfect, soon after I got a 386 that ran windows 3.11 and its taken years till I got xp which finally does what window 3.11 should have done! The 386 had some problem with it and it took me so long fixing it I went on to build machines for people and then started selling laptops. all the best urban

i started using a computer in 1995 and shortly after i discovered the internet and it was dialup internet back then and you would get disconected from the internet quite often and it was really slow, thank godthey invented broadband internet which is so much faster than dialup :)
