My first-ever computer was an Apple ][; for some unknown reason, I
remember the date I purchased it:  October 13, 1978.  I got a loan from
the local credit union to buy it; it was the firs loan they ever made
for the purpose of buying a personal computer.  I upgraded it to a ][+.
and later sold it and bought a //e.  Subsequent to that, I won a //c in
a sales contest, and traded the //e for store credit at a comic-book
store.

Then I bought the Mac 128K.
