My first computer was a Tandy 1000 EX. It came with built-in 5.25 drive and ran on MS DOS 2.0. I had several games for it (many of which were pirated by the Radioshack where we bought it). It was my first experience with the card game Black Jack & SEGA (one of the games on the disks labeled "Games" was Zaxxon). I also got boxed versions of several Disney games:
* The Black Cauldron
* Winnie the Pooh
* Donald Duck
Two other games I enjoyed on it were the original "The Last Ninja" & "Thexder."
From a teacher at JR high school I received a copy of First Choice. (I remember seeing someone play Wolfenstien 3D in the computer lab at the time.) I also had Deluxe Paint for painting. The computer had a wonderful DOT Matrix printer as well.
My second computer was a Gateway "Flextastic" Essentail 866. I first played Ultima Online on this machine.
Before getting an internet ready computer, I went from the Sega Net browser for Sega Saturn to the Sega Dreamcast.
I ebayed a Packard Bell computer that had Windows 3.11 which I made into a DOS-run machine. It even has a 5.25 drive and a 3.5 drive besides the hard drive.
