One thing I didn't previously mention is that the first computer I saw & used was a Sinclair ZX-81. It was my best friends but he couldn't make head and tail of it. So when I visited he left it mainly for me to use and that started my addiction to programming :)
- pjmlp 14y agoNice list. If I am not mistaken, we started with the same Linux distribution.
- draegtun 14y agoThanks. If I include computers used at work & friends then we overlap a bit more... - Commodore 64 & Amiga (?) - both friends - Prime minicomputer (primos) - PDP (11?) server - Vax/VMS server - SCO Unix & Xenix servers (my first taste of Unix - 1994) - SCO OpenServer (first server I setup & managed at work) - Sparcstation (SunOS), Sun Blade & couple of Sun Ultra workstations (all running Solaris) - Tiny bit of AS/400 & HP-UX - Lots of Intel servers running Linux! (SuSE, Redhat & Ubuntu)
