Hmm, I remember playing with an apple ][e and a 286 around the same time, but they weren't mine. I just had unlimited access to them. I never ruined either one, but my first hacking experience was on the 286. I figured out how to get past the DOS shell that started on boot and back to the command line (if I remember right, I just guessed the password. If I knew what I know now it would have been a lot easier, but hey, I was a kid and didn't even know DOS). From there I taught myself DOS and found a nice collection of naked women in *.gif format the guy had been keeping on his harddrive. He found out somehow, but didn't know exactly what I had done, just that I had seen the pictures. I think I forgot to re - attrib +h the files.

My own actual first computer was a Pentium 90Mhz. I still have it. It's running Linux.
