I still have my first computer, the Compaq Portable, and numerous of its 5 1/4" floppies. It looks like a portable sewing machine and weighs 25+ pounds. Don't tell the folks with Clean House for they would probably have it in a yard sale since I no longer use it. It is such a reminder of how far personal computing has come. One program I remember working in a great deal was Lotus 123. I have loved computers since that day.
I had a difficult time transitioning from DOS to Windows, believe it or not. I was so accustomed to having such great control with DOS that the ease of Windows was scary. It almost felt like I was working on an Apple or Mac.
