The first computer that was in the home for me to use was a 486 IBM PS/2 dual booted with OS/2 and Windows 3.1. The first computer that was actually mine was a little NEC laptop running a Syrix equivalent of a Pentium II and Windows 98.
My first cell phone was a Motorola Talkabout. It was my father's, he had a cell line for a couple years. When I got my driver's license, I think he got all dad-like and decided everyone needs cell phones, so he added two lines to the plan, got new phones for him and my mother and I got his old phone. That was circa 2003.
My first "smart" phone was somewhere around 2009 or 2010, an LG Ally.
