I bought Commodore 64 back in May '87

Then I didn't buy another computer until spring 2000 (

) when I got Dell XPS T600R

Atari 400 in 1981, but I did get a Commodore 64 too!

IBM Aptiva 667MHz Celeron 256MB RAM 40Gb HDD

I could do a 16 track mix, but a single reverb would take about 60% CPU.

MicroRhythm on the C64 was the thing that got me hooked on music making, there was only a handful of samples to chooose from, but they could be tuned, and you could write songs by stringing bars together, so some pretty nice results could be had

First was the Vic-20, then a Commodore 128, IBM and various PC's ever since.

a Radio Shack TRS-80 "Color" Computer - with 8 colors you could use!
later got it "extended" to get something like 256 colors and better graphics resolution
got a cartridge that let you program polyphonic music using text

Later got an Amiga 1000 and Music Studio (enter notes on a staff) with MIDI, and something called Dynamic Studio which was an early sequencer program with MIDI I hooked up to my Yamaha DX27S keyboard (had a piano roll, quantization, a drum machine and a few other goodies)

Good times

IBM DOS machine. That thing never crashed on me, ever. It had a huge red switch on the side and a 5 inch floppy slot.

My first was an Apple //e, purchased in 1982 or 1983. But I started on the Commodore PET and CBM computers we had in school somewhere around 1979-80.

I still have a Commodore CBM and two C-64's in my garage!

What was the first computer you owned?
