<p style="text-align: center;">[[File:0c2cf3536cbb90cd1041f46d92bd697d.jpg|thumb|300px|Philip as seen from the intro to the OSFirstTimer show.]]According to the '''history of OSFirstTimer''', his exploration into operating systems began when Philip asked for a computer to play a math game called ''Math Blaster: In Search of SpotSprot ''on. Diana and Philip arrived at a computer store and bought a computer with Windows XP on it (it is unknown whether it was Professional or Home Edition). They also looked for the math game Philip wanted, but the store didn't have it. However, there were several games that were compatible with Windows 95 and Windows 98. The lady at the store failed to mention though that they could probably run the games on XP even though they were intended for an earlier operating system. They bought a few other games but after a while Philip got bored of them and wanted to see what else his computer could do, without any access to the internet. So, for several years he explored Windows XP and what it could do, sparking his interest in operating systems. However, after a few years his computer kept crashing, gave him a BSOD and failed to boot. He then bought a new PC on the day Windows Vista was launched in Australia. He did explore Vista too, but not as much as XP. He also then got the internet, and used to play RuneScape online. He then found out about a program called Virtual PC and downloaded it on his computer along with a copy of Windows 95. He kept downloading operating systems making several virtual machines running several versions of Microsoft Windows, and did YouTube videos on them. He also became interested in the development of Windows and always stayed up-to-date on what Microsoft had introduced in terms of Windows.</p>
