Another poll just for the sake of random curiosity....

Since I know people will ask: define 'computer' however you want to define it. For myself, I define it to exclude game systems (so, not NES, not that I had one) and single-purpose tools (so the Speak-n-Spell doesn't count ;) ).

EDIT: As several people have noted, I should have added an age question; since this was idle curiosity, I didn't think that far. Anyway, for reference, the average age of respondents so far seems to be 27-33, ish.

I counted my first computer programming course back in 1965 or 1966 as being my first time as operating a computer. First job out of college, as a computer programmer, I also operated a mainframe--various and assorted IBM and Burroughs (Unisys) computers from then until 1984. Got a Kaypro CP/M portable computer of my own in 1983.
