My dad wouldn't buy me a console or a computer. He honestly believed that the personal computer was a dead-end product that would never find a market. Its the only thing he has ever admitted he was wrong about to me. That said, the first computers I worked with (in school) were a Wang 2200 and a TRS-80. I long lusted over Atari 800's and Apple II's but the first computer I ever bought was a Macintosh 7100/80.
