what was your earliest computer memory??

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 :marseyneat:

there was some other really cool games like ottomatic, enigmo, and nanosaur 2 which was my favorite

pure SOVL

first ever laptop was a Compaq Armada E500, sporting an Intel Pentium 3 running windows XP

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 :marseyboomer: )

i also remember using desktop destroying a lot. i dont think theres any modern program that will have this much sovl

Playing Voodoo Castle, etc on my Mother's Commodore Vic 20. I got a lot of my reading skills from those text adventure games. Didn't really have much of a clue what I was doing back then but it was still fun.

My own first computer was a 286 I used to play Commander Keen, Duke Nukem, and Civ 1.

my grandma had a 286 or 386 and man, I got into Commander Keen and the OG 2D Duke Nukem. Only the first episode as she bought computer gaming magazines that had shareware floppy disks, but that shit was so cool

also Jones in the Fast Lane, Jill of the Jungle, and Space Quest

I had a bunch of those shareware disks as well. They gave away a good amount for free, all things considered.

The best Keen though was Keen Dreams where he's fighting all the huge vegetables.
