My first computer was the
Radio Shack TRS-80 Color Computer. I used it in the 4th grade in 1984 (I went to the smart classes on the short bus), then Mom bought one for me. I had a cassette drive that you could get stupid litle text games on. I also used to write little BASIC programs for games like Blackjack and dice.
Pretty awesome for its day: a color computer that I ran through my Coleco Vision RF adapter to the TV in my bedroom. It had a whopping
0.89 MHz Motorola 6809 CPU.
A quick search found these pics on
THIS site (I had a beige case):
