My first computer was an Apple //e, which had just been introduced, in 1983. I'm not counting the Commodore C64 computer I got in 1982, since it was a loaner, and I returned it when I bought the Apple //e.
My parents's first computer was a Commodore CBM 8032 in 1980, where I had learned to program in 6502 assembly.
The first computer I programmed on was a HP 2000 minicomputer, in HP 2000A Time-Shared BASIC, in 1976, over a 110 baud acoustic coupler modem on a Teletype Model 33, used by TIES. My first program I worked on was Oregon Trail on that machine. I didn't create Oregon Trail, it was pre-existing from 1971. I just didn't realize the changes I was making to the program was changing everyone's shared copy.
Fun fact: three of my coworkers had also worked on later incarnations of Oregon Trail at various times, when it was part of MECC.

Sadly I'm too young to know most of the computers you mentioned. What kind of software was Oregon Trail? A game?
Yes, it's a game that has been ported to death to multiple systems:
