2nd gen here.

My father was the "it guy" for a swiss engineering firm in sweden, lots of *nix and vms stuff.

had the vic 20, then c64, then amiga, then 386, 486 and onwards at home, I was probably 6-7 years old when I started playing. Like another poster higher up, had to learn binary pretty fast to make rasters and sprites etc. lots of fun over the years.

But, in reply to your question, yes, I am 2nd generation, something I actually liked to point out in interviews early in my career.
