Your first experiences using computers

My first experience with a computer was back in the early 2000s. My family had this old Windows 98 PC, and it was a big deal because none of my friends had one yet. I didn't have any game consoles either, so that PC was my everything.I remember playing games like SkiFree, Chip's Challenge, and Space Cadet Pinball. I spent countless hours on Microsoft Paint, trying to draw. There was also this typing program with a robot that helped you learn to type faster. I was obsessed with it, mainly because I wanted to beat my older brother's high score.I used to mess around with the settings a lot, sometimes accidentally changing the screen resolution to something crazy and freaking out until I figured out how to change it back. And let's not forget the dial-up internet - the struggle of waiting forever for a single webpage to load, and the horror of someone picking up the phone and disconnecting you.Those were simpler times, but man, they were awesome. It's funny to think how far we've come since then, but those early experiences definitely shaped my love for tech today.

I think it was around 1994 or 1995. My mother took my siblings and I to see our father at his office. I think he had a IBM clone type of computer.  I don't remember it having a Windows type of interface. It was mostly white or lime green text against a blue background. My favorite time was when I was using a software program called "Banner" and had so much fun the the fonts and designs.

I don't remember my first time ever using a computer. My grandpa was a huge computer buff and so I always had access to a computer (I was born in 96). The first games I remember playing was Sirus Sing-Along Kids 1, a "game" where dinosaurs sing childrens songs, Lenny Music Toons, a music based game staring Lenny the Penguin, and a lot of Humongous entertainment games.
