What age were you when you first had a personal computer in your household?

Out of curiosity really. I'm not British though I live here now, but I'm just intrigued to see how the UK reality compared to mine in Brazil. I was born in 1997 and I was around 8-9 years old when we got the first personal computer in our household. I'm asking this because I am \*in theory\* Gen Z, but I'm not exactly a "digital native" nor had portable internet access from a very young age. In fact, I was 17 when I had my first smartphone. It's funny because I relate much more to British Millennials than Gen Zs. I know these categories are a bit US-centred and replies here would be anecdotal, but this is Reddit and not a proper academic survey.
