I bought my first Intel based PC in 1982.

Well since we're reminiscing about our computer history, my first "PC" was a "homebrew" (literally garage built) dual 8" floppy machine that ran either (by swapping a card) Intel or Zilog microprocessors. I still believe that some of Andy's (Grove) paranoia stemmed from what Zilog did to Intel in the '70s.

Obviously, I didn't capitalize on my CP/M

like many others. Story of my life. My first machine was an IBM 650 and I certainly didn't get as much out of it as Donald Knuth did.

Oh well!
