My first computer was a Kaypro PC.  No CP/M.  This was an IBM XT knock off
with a 20MB HD, though faster than the XT, sporting an 8MHz 8088.  Taught
myself dBaseIII/Fox Pro, Turbo Pascal and Quick Basic on that machine (amongst
others), as well as burning many an hour playing Microprose' Gunship with a CH
Flighstick. :)

Sometimes I miss those simpler times...
