My first console was the Atari 2600, my first computer ran on MS-DOS, had a 5 1/4 inch drive, monochrome CRT and no mouse. My intro to Windows was version 3.1.

Same with my Hyundai 8088 IBM compatible. It's an antique piece now ;_;
Siiiiiiick! I’ve never heard of that, I would LOVE that for deco in my tech room hahaha. Alas, we had no idea we’d want these in the future.
My pops threw out four or five IBM Model M keyboards when clearing out my Grampa’s house when he died… that was right before I knew mech keyboards are dope and worth anything. D:
If that excites you, you should check out the Schneider 8088. Monochrome orange CGA, oh yeah bby,
