    First home family computer was a Packard Bell, windows 3.1…was forbidden from taking it apart or messing with the settings.

    First computer that I was allowed to mess with was a thrift store Commodor 64…

      That damn “warranty void if removed” sticker. I wasn’t allowed to tinker with the old family Win3.1 PC until 1999 because of that damn sticker, and only because we finally replaced the old dinosaur with a shiny new Windows 98 SE laptop.
