first time i used computer was 10 years ago when i was in 7 th standard ...i was scared to use it that time [mukulmisra24]
no idea about computer at your age [alextki]



Well it was very long time ago actually when i was in my sophomore years in college during one of my lab sessions or subjects. Those are the time of the paper white monitor and that internet is not yet a reality in my place. greetings. : ) [moneymind]

i think i first used a computer 15 years ago when I was still in high school. We were still using DOS that time which is, i think, a little bit hard compared to microsoft which we are currently using. DOS was a bit confusing. I could still remember that we use those big floppy disk about 5 x 5 incehs in diameter... and now, we cannot use those kind of disks... technology is really changing fast.. we now have diskets, cd, and flash drives which can store more files. [makaira]
I can really relate to this! I was in high shool also and it seems that our section, being the top section was priveledged enough to have a 1 hour computer class thrice a week. 2 students per computer. I was so amazed that we can type,print and save. You know in high school there's so many reports every grading period and it was a relief then because I can edit my documents/files not unlike when I done/typed it in a typewriter... plus u can print another copy instead of using a carbon paper... hahaha [Cutiegabby]



i used a computer back when i was still about 5 years old in my father's office..=) i was playing the game... uh... i forgot what it was. the one with the snowboarder. hehehehe. i think it was still Windows 93 back then...=) [khitkhat]

In 1984 was the first time I used a computer and was signed online. I was using a Apple II computer system. Things have changed a great deal since then in the computer/internet industry. It's amazing how far we have come through the years but what's even more amazing is we have only touched the tip of the iceberg. [TurnkeySetup]

The first time was the computer at the public library about 25 years ago. We loved using print shop. We'd go at least once a week and make greeting cards, signs, and banners. Of course they printed only in black ink and were so pixelated, it's funny to think of how bad they looked compared to what you can do now. [brimia]

I still remember my first usage of system ie 18 years back! its when I am in school days wanted to learn BASIC language which was popular then. [MEESALU]

It was during my schoo days when they taught computer. There were only about 15 computers in the school and we got very little time to spend on the computer. [kritipen]
