My first was a Commodore 64. My kids all learned to program on it.
Two years ago I gave my son the full Commodore 64 set up. He power it up and it all worked. He packaged it back up and said it would go to a great great grandkid down the road.
Jack Tramiel, founder of Commodore and an influential figure in the early days of personal computing and video games, passes away Sunday at the age of 83.
