Default first digital experiences...

I guess that a lot of forum members will have gone digital to at least some degree, but when did it happen?

I remember taking my first digital photo way back in 1988, though it was another 13 years before I got my first digital camera, four years later I'd completely given up on film.

My first digital shot was taken using a video camera attached, via some device or another to a pc. Shots had to be downloaded directly onto the pc and each one took about 10mins to load, not a very fast frame rate!

The first digital camera I owned was a cheap Fuji 1.3mp compact, a decent little camera, but lower res than my current mobile phone. I then progressed through a number of compacts (got into digiscoping in 2002) until in 2004 I finally got a dslr. We've been through 12 digital cameras 6 years (still have 5 of them and use 4 regularly).

So those of you who have used digital, when did you first experience it? When did you get hooked? and has it completely stopped you using film?
