First computer: Xerox 860 in 1982, followed by a Mac 128, signed on the inside by Jobs and crew, which my business partner later donated to the public school system before I could SCREAM!

First date of connection: PAN Network, 1988, at a price of $79 a month for access to this now-prehistoric worked-some-of-the-time text-based musician's exchange. They are still around, but have obviously adopted a different business model and an only slightly better graphical approach.

Built first web site: Feb of 1996. www.systecinc.com (long dead, still living courtesy of the way back machine). It stood toe to toe in its day, and on futher inspection, it still ain't bad.
