My first experience with Windows XP was at my after school daycare and I'd just play pinball until I was picked up, but our laptop at home had Windows Vista and I played Roblox on it and I experienced that first.

I mean, the first computer I ever used was in 5th or 6th grade, to learn BASIC, so ... no idea what those were running but it was before Windows, Linux, and BSD existed :)

Then we had typing classes in high school but not younger. I didn't use computers again until college, when I learned how to email using the Computer Science department mainframes that only sent emails between University of California campuses. That was before HTML existed. :)

The first personal computer I owned was hmmm probably a Mac LCIII circa 1994. At my first office internship, I taught myself WordStar, which was the big deal before WordPerfect and later MS Word. At my first real job, we still had dot matrix printers with the green and white striped paper.

I am elderly haha
