I know the thread is old but I had to throw my 2c in. Since we're talking about first computers, can anyone beat a Timex Sinclair with 4k memory as a dinosaur first, followed by a Commodore Vic-20 and an Atari 400. My first computer mod was to replace the flat panel keyboard with a 3d party model with real keys.
I will never forget waiting 30 min to load a 48k game tape. Yuck. Life became much brighter the day I got my first disk drive. :P
The first "desktop" computer I ever saw was in 7th grade, circa 1964 or 65. It was essentially a huge calculator. I was blown away by it's ability to do square roots :P.
