Neću pisati o onome prvom, prvom susretu s računalom koji je bio nespretan baš poput prvoga koraka, nego o ovoj ljepotici na mome stolu. Dobro, znam, računalo, kompjutor, laptop, prijenosnik... sve je to muškog roda, ali za mene je moj komp ONA! Ženstvena i prekrasna u svojoj zagasitocrvenoj boji... mojoj najdražoj! Sva elegantna i zavodljiva, moja prijateljica uz prvu jutarnju kavu. Podijelila sam s njom svaku svoju fotku, pjesmu, status, poveznicu, frenda... A kada se samo sjetim koliko sam bila tužna kada sam je od muža dobila na poklon! Nadala sam se crvenoj kožnoj torbi! Dobro, da... kajem se! ONA je ipak najbolji poklon ikad!

I won’t write about my very first encounter with a computer that was awkward just like the first step, but about this beautiful girl on my desk. Ok, I know – computer, laptop, notebook... these are all masculine gender nouns, but to me my computer is a SHE! Feminine and beautiful in its dark red colour... my favourite! Elegant and seductive, my friend accompanies me for my first cup of coffee in the morning. I shared my every photo, song, status, link, friend... with her. And to think I was sad when I got her from my husband as a gift! I was hoping for a red leather bag! Ok, yes... I’m sorry! SHE is still the best gift ever!

Daleke ‘98. godine dogodio se moj prvi susret s kompjutorom Pentium III! Bila je to najjača mašina u selu, a bome i šire! E, kad se sjetim gužve u sobi, samo da vide taj moćni stroj koji je mogao gotovo sve – od igranja igrica, gledanja filmova, interneta (doduše ne adsl-a, ali i modemski je bio kao munja u ono vrijeme).... I što da vam kažem, osim da citiram narodnu poslovnicu: “Prva ljubav nikad se ne zaboravlja!”

Back in distant 1998, my first encounter with a Pentium III computer occurred! It was the most powerful machine in the village and beyond! Eh, when I remember the crowd in my room waiting to see the mighty machine that was able to do almost everything from playing games, watching movies, surfing (however, not through an ADSL modem, but I was like lightning at the time with the help of a basic modem connection).... What can I say except quote this famous saying: “You never forget your first love!”

“Moje prvo računalo” Susret moga sina i računala je od prvog dana bio vrlo pozitivan. Naravno, htio ga je potezati, lupati po njemu, baš je volio piti vodu iznad njega i proliti po njemu... Nakon nekog vremena krenuo je gledati crtiće na njemu uz moju pomoć, naravno. Zatim je sam to sve naučio obavljati. Naučio je poći na internet, naći igricu koju želi (naravno bila je memorirana na ikonici stranica s igricama za dječicu) i uskoro mu je laptop postao najdraža igračka.  Toliko draga da bi nakon gledanja crtića i igranja jednostavno zaspao uz nju. :D

“My first computer” My son’s encounters with computers were very positive from the first day. Of course, he liked pulling on it, banging it, drinking water above it spilling it... After a while, he started watching cartoons on it, with my help, of course. Then he learned to do all of that by himself. He learned how to go online, find a game he wanted (of course, there was a link on the icon of pages with games for little children) and soon my laptop became his favourite toy. He liked it so much that after watching cartoons and playing he would just sleep with it. :D
