I was five years old and my fathers macintosh plus was the coolest computer in the neighbourhood. he had been using apple computers since late seventies. It was so kool cuz i kept using the plus until 94/95 when my father brought home his Quadra 950 with a powermac-card.

And all the time the plus was better than my friends PC-computers. Sure, they got colors, but the graphics was really bad and the monochrome macintosh plus monitor felt fresh and sharp compared to theirs! Used to tease them about their blocky graphics.
Ancient art of war, Boxing, and dark castle were gods. and all those floppies filled with small arcade-games. loved those And Apache Strike with a wheel-mouse! and Uninvited scared the crap out of me like nothing since.

so i guess i have been a macintosh user since 85. But I bought my very first own mac just three months ago. When i get a kid, i will force him/her to use macintosh.
