How did it all start for you?
When I was diagnosed with autism
Apple //c. Fuck I'm old.
My father had a friend that used to fix our computers. I would always hang around whenever he came over. Guess it started there.
Dad always had computers
AOL disk
I was the youngest in my grade, so I was typically the small kid not picked for sports, so I wasn't interested in sports out of spite. I also have a dad who was a programmer, and a few order cousins who were geeks that tought me a bunch. Built my first hand-me-down / frankenstein computer at 10 with some help.
My grandfather used to play heroes of might and magic and it was all downhill from there.
Commodore Amiga in 1993. I was 9.
I fucked up the OS and I learned how to reinstall it from scratch from like 30 floppies Workbench came with. Then I learned 3d on it, and first PC was Win3.1, then wingay 95...and have been on Macs since 1999.
