Nice thread! Apparently I am not too old for this forum :-) My first was a no-name Japanese box with NEC clone of Intel 80186 processor, shortly followed by a luxurious real 286 machine with 40MB hard drive!

My first IDE was debug prompt in MS DOS :-) Typing assembly language commands one by one was something...
