I got my first one way back in 1986. It was a demo model of the A1000 that I got a few hundred off for taking it! It still looked new to me though. My first app was a game. Defender of the Crown. I loved that came. I kept that system for a long time too. I then got a A3000 in 1991 and Just got rid of it this month and Picked up a Pegasos II with a G4 in it. Very nice system too!
