I used an Apple IIe in 1st grade. With the big 5.25in floppys. Learned logo and figured out how to make spirograms using recursive patterns.

Much later we got a Dell P90 and win 95 before going through the rest of windows releases up through win 7. I figured out Linux in high school at some point, but that’s more of a hobby from time to time.

But also used os/7/8/9 at school and later switched to Mac in general.

I bought Red Hat Linux in a store from my allowance when I was 11 or 12. We had no internet at home back then.

Ah crud, I installed Linux on my computer when I was 12 (replacing MacOS, no less).
