I started off with a C64, and was more interested in that than school naturally.
Games were also on tape, but much latter I got two 1541 disk drives (mainly for my programming), which are
here, I also wrote several other programs including a music creating program (with an interrupt driven playing system), a quick program and a shoot-em-up. Unfortunately I no longer have the code (or the programs for these). I did sell one copy of my music program though, which was nice.
I then moved onto the Amiga 600, and got BlitzBasic. That was really buggy and disliked it - I do wish I had brought AMOS instead.
When I heard Commodore was going bust, I quickly sold those and brought my favourite machine : An Archimides A3010, and of course, commenced programming for that, producing many fine programs for it (mostly in BASIC as that was generally as fast as ARM assembler). I wrote a fair bit of stuff, being at University - A sequel to a C64 game, map editor, code generator as so forth. Later on, I upgraded to a RiscPC with a hard drive - yey!
But then, Acorn folded, so I sold by RiscPC and brought a Gateway PC, progressing to a Mesh desktop, several laptops (before they were stolen), and doing a fair bit of programming with Borland C, DarkBasic, DarkBasic Professional.
I still have the page where one of my games was reviewed

I also got a bit of money from an Acorn magazine for a doubly-linked list ARM module I submitted. It took them over a month or so to realise I needed payment, but I did get a fair bit out of them...
Then I got (several) iMacs, which I kept for a year or so (one was damaged after thunderstorms) and the rest were sold, mainly becase OSX 10.6 was so initially buggy...
Then I moved back to PC's and brought BlitzMax (its okay - have to new every structure before you can use it gets a bit ...annoying), GLBasic (my most used programming system - have done various things with it for Android, Linux and webOS). Unfortunately, for the past year or so, the authors presence as been a bit... lacking.
I also have PureBasic (used it for calculating statistical analysis when I was working), and Monkey X (which, like BlitzMax, can be very... annoying).
All through this time, I've been busy gaming - Lotus II on the A3010, Doom 2 on the PC, Commando and Mayhem in Monsterland on the C64. Starfighter on the A3010 was great fun too. Desert and Nuclear Strike on the Amiga. Ah memories...
I did have a Playstation 1 at some point, along with a N64 (and Goldeneye). We also had a XBox a fair few years ago, but with the pervasive appearance of PC games, they were soon gone.
I also had a Raspberry Pi (with RISCOS 5), but unfortunately it suffered from keyboard input problems, so it didn't last long.
I do regret not being able to get a C128, 1581 3.5" disk drive and an Atari Falcon, all of which were difficult to get hold of.
