i played Solitaire and Minesweeper in like 94/95 on win NT/3 which would make me 7-8.. after that i just casually played demo's from those multi cd-rom's you got with PC magazines, and a lot of settlers 2 and Age of Empires.. i was more a playstation guy in those days..
my first own new PC was in 2005 when i started playing WoW

my dad subscribed to Komputer for Alle (computer for all) a danish magazine, never understood why they spelled it with a K.. a joke maybe? and they had these disks probably very like the pc-zone disks.. they had all sorts of software on them like video/photo editing, antivirus/malware, optimization tools and so on & so forth. And of course the freeware software they reviewed in the magazine, so you didn't have to go and find the downloads yourself.. fx. i remember them reviewing Firefox before it was "popular" and they recommended it highly.. so i started using it and despised other browsers for ages, until Chrome came out, now i'm a chromeboy for life (i think)

the magazine actually helped me become the "nerd" i am today, i got a lot of tips in the early days of the home computer that most people dont learn/know about today :)

If you mean IBM PC, I believe 8 years old, but at first mostly freeware/shareware games from CDs added to magazines.

I can't remember the exact age, but I did play on my father's Atari ST before I went to kindergarten.

6-7 Need for Speed Underground 2 from my sisters boyfriend who then decided to run away in the middle of the night with a few beers after months of dating. Now that I think about it, it's hilarious.

Does an Atari 2600 counts? :p

Well, my first PC was an Intel 80486 (better known as i486) with a 40Mb hard drive and a 5 1/4 Floppy Disk, can't remember how much Ram it had.

I don't know how old was i... maybe 6?
