Wow, it was around 1990 and my son wanted a game system. I said he could have the system or a PC but with a PC he could play games and do school work. Our first PC was an Epson with a 8088 processor. Had it home a day and realized we needed more memory and a game card so we opened it up. That started a long list of PC builds and mods. Of course that evolved with us building a myriad of projects over the years. Just this weekend he built a ShapeOko 2 CNC mill. I think I created a monster?
