38.

Not sure which computer I used first. My first regularly used computer
was an Apple ][+ in high school (1981).

Around the same timeframe I played a little with a friend's
Timex/Sinclair ZX-81, and I remember seeing a ZX-80. These were probably
before I started using the Apple II regularly.

I didn't use similar age machines like the TRS-80 and VIC-20 until later
(and then only in passing). I've never seen a PET.

I remember seeing an Apple ][ for the first time, when I was checking
out high schools in late 1980.

I don't recall any early exposure to minicomputers or mainframes, so I
never dealt with paper tape or punch cards.
