This is my second Apple product, brought it second hand (was floor model) bc it was too expensive for me back then.
My first Apple product was the iMac 17" 1GHz. It's still my favorite computer ever.
still have it today. It’s under plastic because I haven’t had time to play with it...
my first apple product was the white ibook.

Apple iPod Nano 16GB, the quality of the product shows so much difference between another brand Ipods.
Truly no one can replace Apple.

iPod Mini 1st Generation. Followed pretty quickly by the 12 inch Macbook Pro.
My first product was an Apple II. Early 80’s, before 1984. I remember that because I ordered a different computer in 1984, and not a Macintosh. I got an iPod in the early 2000’s and eventually an iMac in 2008 and an iPhone shortly after. It was a 4s and that was the first year Verizon could sell iPhones. I think. I should go back and look at the first year Verizon could sell iPhones to be sure.
I'm younger than most on this forum, so mine is relatively recent.
The iPod Touch 4th Gen. What an incredible device. So many good memories and I still carry it with myself anytime I travel.

Mine was an eMac which I got in 2005.
Up until then I had only used Windows computers so OS X was a completely new experience. My initial reaction was quite negative, I hated the menu bar at the top of the screen, and I found that a lot of my software didn't have an OS X version. I also hated the one click mouse and lack of delete key, and I could never tell which applications on the dock were actually open or closed. Over time I adjusted and found myself appreciating the stability of OS X. I also preferred the the Mac software because it was always simpler and easier to use than what I was using on Windows. In the end it was a decent machine and it ultimately encouraged me to buy more Apple products.
apple keyboard had a delete key then you just missed it.
My first exposure to Apple products Circa 1984 on an apple IIe in at my school. If I recall, I think I was doing a "Logo" program at the time to move an on-screen "turtle"

Nice. LOGO on the Apple ][ in 1984 was my first exposure too.

My first Apple purchase was an iMac in 2009. The "Back-to-School" promo included a free 3rd-Gen iPod Touch. That put me on my path to several iPhones, iPads, etc.
iPhone 3GS was my first iPhone. I had a snazzy red cover for it so it was easier to find in my backpack.
The first Apple product I ever bought was actually an Apple keyboard (A1048) sometime in 2004. I got a hackintosh setup working and I wanted a real Apple keyboard to complete the setup. This eventually led me to get an iPod Mini for my girlfriend (who became my wife a year later in 2005). I've since bought many Apple products all thanks to the hackintosh and keyboard introduction.
I wish I still had that keyboard....
