Thorn Bird said:my dad got a computer when i was young...in the single digits somewhere. i was taught how to get to jeopardy and wheel of fortune, and i was threatened with my life if i did ANYTHING else. that's where my fear of these monsters began.
my first internet experience i remember was in college, where i hung around with some big time geeks. i discovered email and chats, and had a great time but didn't learn anything. then i married an ubergeek with no patience, and i still don't know anything about the machines, except how to play with you geeks and check my email.
Well don't I feel older now.FlamingGlory said:Adding to note I was 12 in 1998.
*Fuxx Burger* said:haha, I was scared to death of the Internet when we first got it. My parents told me horror stories about not talking to anyone and kids being kidnapped and molested.... So I pretty much played Solitaire and mindsweep until I figured out the internet wasn't that bad.
I remember walking into the computer room and finding one of my male friends looking at porn. Boy it was fun explaining that web page in the history to my dad
A friend of mine had a 20, I was sooo jealous. Until I got a Commodore 64, then life was tits...shawndavid said:My first computer was a Commodore Vic 20 when I was pretty young. I remember typing out code from the back of the manual to make a ball bounce around the screen. Boy was that a deflating payoff to an hour and a half of slamming away at a keyboard.
My first experience with the internet was a phone modem at my friend's house when I was in middle school so that had to be around 1985-86. Ultima was popular as was Choplifter at this point. I could never get into Ultima myself, but I loved flying some sorties.

Actually my 2400baud modem was blazing fast compared to my old 300
My first intarnet experience was probably when I was 7 or 8 in my dad's office on one of their Vaxen, and that was telneting to a .mil address
