# The Whole Story # The Whole Story
The Apple II Plus was the first computer my family owned. It's what I learned to program on. We spent hours at the keyboard typing in programs from magazines, and eventually I learned to modify them and write my own. As technology progressed, I switched to PCs like almost everyone else and largely forgot about the Apple II after the 90s. I still had an interest in my Apple IIs and managed to get hold of some more gear, including a //c and a couple of IIgs machines. The prices bottomed out a few years after Apple discontinued the line. Eventually I moved on and boxed it all up, sold a bit, but I held on to most of the interesting stuff I'd acquired.
