My first OS: MS DOS 5
Which was soon upgraded to 6 and then 6.22.
Then there was Windows 3.1 (never got into the workgroups junk)
Then Windows 95, 98,2000, ME, XP...blehbleh...
And only now that I am in college and actually forced to use various flavors of BSD, Solaris, and other *nix OSs do I actually bother to learn them. Though working with all the commands, batch files, and the all mightly memmaker has given me a bit of an edge over the point and click generation (I think technically I am the point and click generation, but whateva)

I'm not even sure if this even counts as a computer but we had this funky typewrighter which beeped alot (that way we knew it was working :) ). Then in elementary school we had the "Apple Fishbowls" then we got a computer with WIN 3.???. Then we upgraded to WIN98 which I had to endure. Then we got a XP box. Now Im saving to buy my own comp with Linux. O yeah, we work with Linux at my University how could I forget :cool:

Dr. Toker,
I used to play Nibbles and Gorilla at work! Great way to waste away the day. I started out on the Comodore 64 w/Basic and programming my own games. Then moved on to the Apple OS and have worked my way up through all of the DOS and Windows systems. Lots of fun but a lot of frustration also.
