Never had a games console, I usually played on friends' Atari VCS, Philips G7000 and even a V-Tech Creativision.

Had a Spectrum on loan from a family member for a few months, but didn't really like it since it used to overheat and crash a lot and messing around with tapes was a pain.

The first computer I owned was a Commodore 128D (used mostly in C64 mode).
Changed my life in every aspect, from life-long friends to my career.
Can't imagine my life without it.

I got into Amiga long after Commodore was gone, in the early 00's, with an A2000 I was given by a friend.
Later came other models, expansions, etc.
