In first grade (1984?), my dad helped me write a Pascal program on his North Star Advantage. The computer also ran the WordStar word processor.
We had some early IBM PC computers... a PC XT/8088 (turbo, running at 7 MHz), then the XT/286, then a 386 (virtual memory, woohoo).
I played some early CGA PC games... Kroz series, PC Pool, Monuments of Mars, Striker, Sopwith,
I played some early EGA/VGA PC games... (VGA + BBS's/shareware + Sound Blaster encouraged a lot of PC games to come out from 1991 on) Chessmaster 2000 ('86), Test Drive ('87), Speedball ('88), Starflight 2 ('89), Oregon Trail ('90), Commander Keen ('90), Ultima VI ('90), Prince of Persia ('90), Nibbles ('91), ZZT ('91), Duke Nukem ('91), Wolfenstein 3D ('92), Dune II ('92), Epic Pinball ('93), X-COM: UFO Defense ('93), ROTT ('94), VGA Planets ('94), Descent ('95), Ascendancy ('95), ...
