A Tandy-1000 EX, 256K mem., no hard drive, 1 low density 5 1/4 floppy.
Still have it, still works, although it doesn't do Windows very well ;)

Abacus. Replaced the plastic balls with high-density brass and the
cheap string with quality cat gut. It overclocked like a bitch.

.... a mere Commodore c16... nothing special, although after that I got a
Commodore Plus4... no idea why. Then went onto the legendary Commodore C64's
which I still have about 7 of, most working. Its still the best pc ever ;D

C64- later version with body-coloured keys and matching tape drive. never
had a 5.25" FDD, though....

That would have been 1987/8, when I was about 5 years old. Sold it in about
'93 with a ton of games for £100.
