 ma> into vintage computing since 2008 i only got my 286 in 2013 and been

:)  My first PC was a 12mhz 286 PC in 1992, with a Hercules monochrome monitor. I got a 2400 baud modem with it and started calling BBSes right away.  I really enjoyed it.  I got a VGA graphics card & monitor months later, and my 12-year-old self was really excited.  I remember also getting a Sound Blaster card for that PC at some point, because soon after getting the VGA card & monitor, I was playing Wolfenstein 3D on that PC, complete with color graphics and sound..
