I was about 9 when i first got into computers. Before then, I had absolutely no idea what was on the other side of that side panel...

[Admire]

Hmmm......Im 29. I was probably not extremely young. Probably started playing at 7 or 8. I got my Amitech computer at that age. Actually got my nintendo slightly before....oh damn...hope it isn't "Once a peasant, always a peasant"

 

 

I was two years old. windows 98. 13GB Bigfoot 5.25 inch hard drive 256 MB RAM Pentium 2 333MHz

 

Just be happy it wasn't celeron.

Yes, I had FreddiFish, but my parents never bought me those other games. I did get to play the demos though.

I messed around on PCs from 4-6. At 6 I got into Rome: Total War and flash games ). At 8 I got the joy of getting into FSX *I'm a cool kid B)* and at 12 I stopped trying to fix old shit laptops and built my own rig.

Been into computer for ages and became part of PC master race at 10

I was always into computers, but I didn't get into gaming on them until middle school. Early 7th grade or late 6th grade. When I was in highschool, I started wanting good computers. That's when I got an alienware back when they were not a big of a company and not owned by dell. Then, when I was about to graduate, my alien ware was dying so I started looking into how to fix it and replacement parts. I was actually too scared to fix it until it flat out fried a year and a half later. I built my first comp after that. I'm still using it, actually. Works fine, but it's getting old. I think I'm going to build a new personal one in a few months.

I got into PC's (x86 based) back in 1992, I got a 386 33 sx for my birthday,it had 2 MB ram and 100MB hdd, it had 3 1/2" and a 5 1/4" floppy drives and a 4" internal speaker for sound!!!, man that lasted years, by the time I retired that case it was a 486 100dx with 32 MB of ram with a 100x CD drive, sound blaster 32 sound card 100GB hdd and I started drilling holes in the case to prevent it from overheating. Me and some of my mates would get together after school and work on the next small program to piss the teachers in computer tech class off then play games, I still remember getting my first 9600kb/s modem (dad worked for telecom Aust and built one from spares), that is when I found bulletin boards. Shame I never took this up as a profession instead of my second passion with cars, but I'm still pretty young and I still keep boned up on tech so you never know what may come.

I was always interested by computers but I really got into it when I was 12 when a friend showed me cod4 then I was on it 24/7 and built a comp when I was 14 for black ops 1

I was 3 when I started screwing around on my dad's old Macintosh, playing Math Blaster and watching that space thing.

[ProdigyzMined]

I remember i was 12 when I saw a video of someone BUILDING a computer, he built it! I thought it was crazy, but it fascinated me and I kept doing research, and thus an addiction was born.

5 years old - era of the Apple II. Started learning DOS at 8 years old. First Macintosh experience was when my step-father (Mom's BF at the time) brought over his little Mac SE so I could play Carmen San Diego on it. I was 12 at the time.

I remember that game, PS, love the avatar.

[Maslofski]

around the age of 2, started to play "Big Job" and "dilly Billies". Pretty fun times.

[MaxY]

As I remember, age 4... My family told me that I "started" even younger, but I don't remember a thing. I always helped my dad and that's how I started.

[Stagea]

Age 3-4, playing games in an Apple IIe. 560x192x04bpp was pretty good then.

[Not a Black]

Got in to computer at 7, played console when I was younger. My first pc game was Call of Duty I think.
