Sounds a lot like me, Ram. DOS computer at 5, Windows was used in school when I was 7+ though. We didn't get a computer with Windows at home until I was about 11, and I became Internet addicted after that. Apart from walking the dogs, feeding etc I'm not much of a TV watcher myself and I'm not really a person who likes to go out much...which contributed a LOT to my current battle in agoraphobia. Apart from one local childhood friend, and my mother, my social life is online. I met my best friends in chat rooms and on forums, and we've known each other for years. Unfortunately, they're all in the states or Canada so the time difference is off...
Enter my excuse for sleeping during the day, and staying awake at night. It's the only way I can have somewhat of a social life. Lol. So I usually spend the night talking to friends via messengers or whatnot, flitting through forums, communities and blogging. I sleep for maybe about 6-7 hours at a time, so most of the time I'm not sleeping...I'm surfing. Unless of course I've scored a new bunch of comic books - that, nothing can come in between of.
