Same here. On a ZX Spectrum. Around the age of 10. It was the first programming language I learned.
I wanted ZX Spectrum clone (they were popular here) when I was even younger, but we didn't have money for computer. When I was 10, in 1994, mother bought used IBM PC/AT clone for her work (AMD Am286 14 MHz CPU, 1 MB RAM, 40 MB ST506 MFM HDD, EGA 16 colour video [max resolution 640x350]). That was my first actual experience with computer at home and I started learning to code some two weeks later.
