   I suppose I was a little late too, but I was a kid when I got my first   
   computer..  I was 12 years old, and it was a hand-me-down - a home-built 286   
   with 2mb of RAM and MS-DOS, with a Hercules monochrome graphics card.  I had   
   been using computers before that, but that was the first time I had my own   
   computer.   
      
   Thinking back, I was excited to have my own computer.  I also got a modem with   
   it, and that was when I first started using BBSs - I thought it was really cool   
   to be able to connect to another computer and use it.
