Must have been in 1982, around my 12th I guess. Funny part was that I did not have a computer, but I was fascinated by them, so I borrowed a C64 book from my parent's friends and read it from cover to cover and back and started programming on paper due to lack of a real computer. Later - 1983/1984 - at school, we got access to MSX computers and later to Tandy TRS80 computers. I bought my own MSX2 in 1985. As of today, I am still a developer :)
