Speaking as a poor kid of the day, there were a series of machines sold off for pennies in their decline, and that was the only computer hardware we ever had access to. IIRC, for me it was the TI 99/4a first, and the 800XL second. Then later, a Xerox PC (which was actually just a re-badged Olivetti). Bottom-feeding, FTW.
