I feel like I started a bit earlier than most devs I know, but I have the feeling that I'm not as smart as most devs.
I hope I make up missing intelligence by being more passionate than the average dev and having a bit of a head start, lol.
I bought my first computer, a C64, with 8. I played around a bit with BASIC, but didn't build anything much more advanced than a "hello world" with it.
Later I got a PC, when I was 11 or something, and did basically nothing coding related till I was like 14. Then I started doing some scripting and mapping (which also included scripting) for games like Duke Nuken 3D and Halflife. I also did some simple games with Flash, but nothing too big. I was more into the whole administration stuff back then. Build PCs, setup OS, tweaked the OS for games, setup some FTP servers and stuff for filesharing.
Wrote some IRC bots in mIRC-Script when I was 16 and did some websites in HTML/CSS in that year.
Later I tried some web stuff in PHP, guess when I was like ... I don't know 19 or so.
Got my first internship as web developer when I was 21.

It was a bit mixed with me.
