Australian, checking in. I first saw a Commodore Pet, then an Apple II shop, in Perth WA, around 1977 - 1982, competing with each other. Tandy had their TRS-80 shops too, but generally .. Apple II was the first "real PC" I remember seeing in the neighborhood of the late 70's. In the early to mid 80's, it was all C64 and Atari and Amstrad for games, pretty well mixed, but a lot of the richer-kids had big Apple II investments, even into the 80's .. and there were of course a lot of other clones in the arena, at that time, too.
