Which color was your first computer?
@Em0nM4stodon I voted beige, as that was the computer I learned how to use computers on.
The first one I owned myself (when I moved to college) was white.

Which color was your first computer?
@Em0nM4stodon The first one I *owned* was black (a Spectrum). The first one I *used* was white (a ZX80).

I remember this monitor but I'm certain it was a tower. 1995 or 6 HP Pavillion with Windows 95. I still remember the day my Dad got it all set up and turned it on and being so excited. I had pretty much no reason to use a computer at that age but seeing some of the games and watching him connect to AOL was enough to make it a core memory.
@cosmic_gorilla @Em0nM4stodon we had a gateway tower with almost the same monitor and speaker configuration, I remember playing Outlaws on it, a sprite based shooter and it lee to begging my mom to get me a used computer I could rebuild. The rebuilt PC had a green and white monitor, pretty sure it came from a bank

Which color was your first computer?
@Em0nM4stodon Beige. And my second. And my third... I lose track somewhere, but probably about six or seven, until my first Freecycled laptop without a hard drive (at first). So that's about... '78 to '05 or so?
-
Which color was your first computer?
@Em0nM4stodon black but not the period you're probably thinking of... It was an early 1980s ZX81.
Second was a lovely dark grey Amstrad CPC464. Only after that started the series of beige, beige, beige, beige, black (still have) desktop PCs, black netbook, white laptop, dark blue laptop, metallic green laptop
