My answers:
1. On the basis that "home PC" means the first machine I actually
owned, and wasn't something I had purchased for me, it was a used
Commodore 128 D. Before that my parents had a Commodore 64. In both
cases, their Kernels were the OSs, so the model name also applies to
the OS name.
2. The C64 had 64k RAM, a 1 MHz 6510, and used a 1541 floppy drive,
while the C128 had 128k RAM, a 2 MHz 8502 (which usually operated at
1 MHz), and a built in 1571 floppy drive.
3. An Apple IIe, if I remember correctly, though it might have just
been an Apple II. That was so long ago, I can barely remember.
4. Ubuntu 7.10 was the first Linux install I ever did on my own.
Only my mind would come up with something so utterly pointless as
this stupid phrase.
