SiliconValley.com asked readers what their first computers were.
Mine: Commodore C=64, with a single-sided 1541 "smart" floppy drive, a 300 baud Total Telecommunications modem, and a Star Gemini II dot matrix ribbon printer.
Holy crap, I want a Commodore watch. or a Commodore Phone.

I've got the commands "POKE 53280,0; POKE 53281,0" burned into my memory forever.(C64 Basic to change the background and border to black. I wasn't some cyan-and-blue coding punk)
