Ahh, fond memories of my first experience with the PC. The IBM PC. I was working for a software company selling mainframe utility software for the IBM 303X series. I remember there was also a hardware company in the building, and if I recall, a Megabyte of RAM for these machines was $10,000.00 US.
Please show your age and share your first experience with the PC.

DEC had given my high school a PDP-3, so I was programming in a forerunner or offshoot of Basic called Focal in 1968, using paper tape on a terminal like the one previously pictured. I used punch cards for the first time in 1969, when I took a class for high schoolers at MIT, learning FORTRAN.
