Mine:
It hooked up to the TV and included some programs on solid state cartridges. Used a cassette tape deck for physical storage. No WWW.

For obvious reasons <.< >.> my computer doesn't go as far back. The first computer I had was in the 90's and it was a Dell. It looked basically like this.

OOOOOLLLD post, but my first computer was a bulky Windows 98 laptop. I used it most to play SimCity 99, Helicopter Rescue, and Rollercoaster Tycoon 2000, and Star Wars: Dark Forces 2. Best system of my life

A 1980 Atari 800 (how many of you knew Atari made a "computer" - raise your hand... I'll wait.). It had zero onboard memory and you had to add a 8 1/2 or 5 1/4 floppy disk drive. I learned to program (Basic) on this bad boy. 8 bit "operating system" this thing was. **8** bit lol. The times -
