1999 G3 iMac... Bought it new and was frustrated by how fast it became obsolete after OS X came out. Sits in storage closet unloved. Replaced it in 2003 with sony vaio desktop which i use to today.

used a 1991 powerbook 140 for internet and email till 2001 on business travel... Still fire it up sometimes

I didn't get a computer until 1995 when Microsoft introduced Windows 95. That's about the time my dad starting using a personal computer for his work as well. Only the big banking companies on Wall Street and those massive c-corporations provided personal computers to their employees in the late-1970's to early-1980's. Computers weren't commonly found in the typical workplace until the mid- to late-1980's. Like I said before, my dad used electric typewriters at his jobs until the mid-1990's.
