What was your very first computer ... ?

@SW-User Another Sinclair.
Very popular :)

@Nimbus They were popular because they were ultra-cheap and the kind of thing parents get their 10-year old kids. It wasn't very useful but I learned how subroutines worked on it.

@Nimbus Nice industrial design, though, Sinclair always had that down compared to other manufacturers.

@SW-User Built to last.

@Nimbus That ZX81 was the genesis of my career, and it's ultimately why I've never had to work a crappy job in my life and could pay as I went through university and was able to graduate debt-free.
