Because the intent of the poll was the first Personal Computer you owned. Very very few people started off with their own mainframe. `-- I'm not belgian but I play one on TV.`	[reply]

At the very beginning of computer era very few people owned any computer at all, because it started with mainframes. When I am asked "my first university was..." I usually answer "St.Pete state university" and do not mean that I own it. Very few people own university :) Courage, the Cowardly Dog	[reply]
