Here's a link to the first real computer I ever had. It was an
NEC PC-8801
I call it a 'real' computer because I was using it for serious tasks rather than just to learn about computers. Database work, word processing, and so on. It wasn't a DOS machine, but rather a CP/M machine, the competitor to DOS, before Microsoft won the very first OS battle. (Well, skirmish. It wasn't really a battle at all.) It originally had 8" floppy drives that I had to change to the new 5 1/4" floppy drives. A stroll down 'Memory Lane'. Almost literally... :-)
Scroll down the page to get to the specs of the PC-8801.
