      I started using a computer when I was 5. In elementary I was fixing the Apple computers for my teachers.

          Funnily enough, after enough years, that old Apple made its way back to me and I still have it today.

            That's pretty cool.
            Sometimes I wish I had kept my old 8088, it was my first.
