Would be better if it wasn't virtual though. Maybe Steve K would let us borrow one of his incredible flying machines?
...or maybe use one of mine?
This one would hold us all quite comfortably, I think.
...and we could sleep here
Or here?
Unfortunately, this one's still being fixed :(
Or we could meet, eat, and sleep on this one?

Apparently not, I'm 53, I remember watching landing on the moon (live)... It cannot be compared with seeing Dire Straits live (""Brothers in Arms" Tour) though, best concert I have ever seen (besides seeing Sade and Scorpions live for the first time, of course)
This is my first computer at work, I was into my 30s by then, and the man who personally delivered it was a client of ours. He and his brother had just sold their interests in DEC. Nice man, and the machine wasn't bad for its time.
Life is so much more efficient now thank goodness!
Silene
Lol, here is my first computer, ever:
hmm I recognise that, my son had one, his first computer.
Mine was far less serious, or maybe I was the less serious one. My first computer was a Colecovision Adam
Really? Who'd think that they went up in value? Collectors are strange.
The guts of the computer were houses in the printer, which typed by hand! LOL Thunk... Thunk... Thunk... Thunk... a whole 35 words per minute! ;)
It was a great machine, though!
Our first school computer.

Needed a soldering iron and an electrician to put it together.
I have said before that the first computer that I owned was a BBC Micro, with a cassette tape deck for storage and plug into the TV for display (until I got a proper monitor - that was going up in the world!). But the first one I used (excluding mainframes that could be accessed either by punch cards, or if you were very privileged a teletype machine) was when I had my first office job and they had recently bought a Hewlett Packard PC - still a black and white monitor, with twin tape decks built-in (not even a disk drive) - and it cost around $15,000!!!
I had one of those, too! I thought it was awesome, 'cause the membrane keyboard reminded me of the large one Dillinger uses in Tron.
The first ever computer I ever *used* was a Vic-20. I remember going through the manual, trying to learn how to program :p
The first computer I ever actually owned didn't come 'til much later, around 20 years old. Was a Packard Bell 286, 12Mhz with 1 meg of ram and a whopping 20 meg hard drive. I was the envy of my friends because I could display 16 colors at 640x480.
Next one would be a 486-DX. Don't remember the specs on that one as well, but I was still the envy because I could smoothly run this demo...
Was so into the demo scene back then. Apparently it's still alive and well.
Good times.
I still miss using Stereo Shell on top of DOS.
First computer I used (at work) was a 32K PET. It came with an external dual floppy unit that had as much computing power as the main computer - and cost as much! They were connected by a big chunky IEEE-488 ("eye triple-e") cable, which was double-headed so you could daisy chain a second drive unit or printer. It was the SCSI of its time.
So naturally, when I eventually bought a computer it was a Commodore - C64. I progressed up through C128, then Amiga, Apple II, PC, Mac . . .
