Okay I'll beat y'all right now.
My first computer was the Aquarius, manufactured by Mattel Electronics.
Complete with CPU, two game controllers, an expansion pack, 4-1/2" thermal
printer, and cassette tape drive that used standard audio cassettes. It was
basically an Intellivision with a keyboard that also did BASIC.
And my dad used to bring home a Kaypro II from work every weekend that I
used with the 300-baud modem to access AT&T's UNIX labs from home.
