We got that computer when I was 5-ish, but I didn't really get to use it
until I was about 7 or 8 because it was with Dad at grad school out of
town.  By the time I turned 9, I was writing programs on it in GW-BASIC
which I learned from others' programs.

That was about 15 years ago.

Yep, I'm young.  I think brobrob's the only one on the list younger than I.
