The first computer I owned

Sadly it wasn't an Apple Mac. It was the family computer and being only 7 years old, I had no say in it whatsoever.

It was a Commodore 64 and below is an advert for it that I unearthed.

This is the kind of advertising that my parents were susceptible to?
Too funny...

What was the first computer you owned?

ZX Spectrum. Much cooler (though less funny) advert:

Karen, I just found your blog. Good stuff. Thanks for posting. Especially this old C64. I had one too back in the day. WAY back in the day. Thanks for jogging my memory!

Sinclair, was black rubber and had to put the tape into an old tape player :-) !!!! I got it for my 10th birthday and used to play tennis on it...
