My first one too! So many things came together back then. On TV I saw a documentary about kids in Japan writing their own games. In our city's airport there was a advertising installation for the IBM PC (forgot which model exactly) in form of a lunar lander game. And my best friend in school had just signed up for a BASIC course taught by students of the local university. I remember I sat there next to the phone going back and forth, unsure about whether I should do the BASIC course and get one of those strange computers myself, or not. Almost didn't do it. When I did finally decide it basically set me on the path for my entire career continuing to today. Of course the first thing I did was figuring out how to do the lunar lander (today I know what I did was the Euler Method). Edit: I also remember I had a hand-written Z80 op code table of 256 op codes. Using that I would write machine code.
