As a followup to "on the street where I live", why not describe which machine
you first worked/played/learned on?

My first one was an HP 1000 (Series E processor), back in early 1980.  It had
about 64K of main, a ~50M disk, 6 teletypes (yes, the Western Union kind), and
a 2640A CRT as a console (2400 baud max).  I learned BASIC that was as bad as
Dartmouth B., and picked up FTN4 by watching over people's shoulders.  I still
feel a bit nostalgic whenever I log on to our HP1000/44 here at GaTech....
