i genuinely dont remember a time in my life when i didn't use a computer. my dad claims that i would sit on his lap when i was a couple months old and mash on the keyboard while he was trying to get work done
my first computer that I actually used was my dad's iMac g5. I remember playing a racing game called "Cro-mag rally" and finding out that i could edit the speed of racers by messing with the settings, which was really neat
there was some other really cool games like ottomatic, enigmo, and nanosaur 2 which was my favorite
first ever laptop was a Compaq Armada E500, sporting an Intel Pentium 3 running windows XP
(yes this is the real laptop, i found it the other day and it spurred this post)
i actually didnt game on this laptop too much. it was too slow to run anything good, so i passed the time watching youtube and """coding""" on scratch (i also used to watch streams on x-fire )
i also remember using desktop destroying a lot. i dont think theres any modern program that will have this much sovl

My first computer I remember was the family Vista desktop which became very slow and virus (?) ridden so my dad bought a Macbook Air to replace it due to all the markeing over Mac's getting no viruses. Macbook Air's were pretty shitty but I played Minecraft, Dwarf Frotress, and openemu alot on it. The hard drive quickly filled with roms I downloaded, but when my mom saw the harddrive was full she blamed apple. I also once downloaded a piece of adware called mackeeper on it because it was ad ware in adobe flash (people forget how even software from established companies would include shady if not outright malicious software in the installer as ad ware).
I tried to find the old intel air so I could shove Linux on it and give it away but it seems lost now
