My first computer was a Timex Sinclair 1000. I had a friend with a Commodore 64 and learned Basic on an Apple II+ at school, but my best friend had an Atari 800. Thinking Atari would be the gaming system I eventually upgraded to an 800XL - black and silver wih128K. Good times.

My first computer was an Amstrad PCW8512 in late 1986. It wasn't supposed to be a "proper computer" (but it WAS a proper computer, with CP/M on the other side of the program disc, and the ability to run all the software available for that OS), more of a glorified electronic typewriter running the LocoScript wordprocessor, with a screen and the ability to print files out on it's dot matrix printer and save files to disc. Atari, Amiga and C64 and C128 users dismissed it and looked down on the PCW. Sure, the Z80 processor and CP/M operating system were pretty out of date even when the computer was new, but they did the job. And my PCW had 512k of RAM at a time when Commodore 8bit computers only had 64k and 128k. It might not have matched up to the much more powerful and flashy 16bit Ataris and Amigas. But compared to the 8bit Commodore 64 and 128, the various models of Spectrum computers and the various other 8bit machines, it fairly held it's own. The only 8bit computers that I can think of that really outclassed the Amstrad PCW were the Acorn BBC B and BBC Master. They were in a league of their own. But I loved my old Amstrad PCW. It was my first computer and still holds a fond place in my heart, despite the fact that I've been a PC user for over 30 years now.

Wow back then in 1983 we were on the cusp of a revolution and of course the internet was the ultimate game changer - the smartly presented kids appearing were a credit to their parents as they knew times were a changing - I can only assume they went on to achieve great success in their lives - The best thing in Ireland was a universal appreciation of great education for knowledge is power.

I got a 2nd hand Sinclair ZX81 in about 1983, my friends all had Spectrums. Back then we had magazines with dozens lines to input to make a dot cross the screen or something equally unbelievable at the time. We called it programming, at some point it became “coding” 🙄 really and truly you knew then that they were here. The advent of the games on the Spectrum meant you knew it was forever
