I don't even know what system it was at the time, but the first time I figured out things weren't just on "computer" and were on a particular operating system and that Mac didn't do games at all, I hated them immediately. They were completely useless for my use case.

I remember when iPods got popular that I specifically didn't want one, I wanted a different mp3 player. I got one of the first Dell ones. I forget the name of it now. It was either a "jukebox" or maybe that was the software's name. It has the scroll barrel on it. Had I think 15 or 20GB on it. I was so much happier with it than I would've been with an iPod. For one I didn't need to cover my entire library to aac. And iTunes was just a nightmare on Windows in general from what I heard. There was no software needed for the Dell one. You just moved your music on like a removable hard drive. Playlists were actual separate files that were somehow associated to the songs. I never did (and still don't) really care about playlists.

I'm too millennial for that. I just play the album I wanna hear. Or nowadays if I'm too lazy or in a hurry I have an automatic playlist that knows what kinda stuff I like to listen to and just plays from that set.
