I didn't actually get a computer until 2001 but I studied programming on IIT's mainframe in 1969. My first computer was a simple device I made out of tinkertoys when I was little but the first real computer was IIT's I saw in 1963. One of my high school classmates was a genius with computers and I learned a little from him but he made a lot of fantastic predictions which I didn't believe and have all come true. The guy virtually thought in programming and could program anything. I have to imagine he went far.
A buddy of mine got on the net back about 1991 or 2 and I played around on it a little bit but didn't think it was worth the cost in those days.
It wasn't six months before I couldn't live without the net back in '02.
