I was going to say Tandy 1000HX, but it was actually an original Mac.

I was 6 when we got the Mac, and 8 when we got the Tandy.  I've never
found games for any system that I thought were better than the ones we
had at the time.

I plugged in the power plug backwards on my dad's hard drive on the 386
when I was 13.  Fried my first (but not last) hard drive.
