Atari 800, ca. 1982, was my first computer.
But unless you need to run modern applications, why not run NEXTSTEP on the mini-Cube? The Previous NeXT emulator[1] should run at full speed on most modern x86 CPUs[2], so if you're not married to the Pi, you could probably do this for not much more money.

Build "branch_softfloat" for the latest CPU emu code.
[2] Or so I assume, because it runs at around double full speed on my seven-year-old 12-core Mac Pro trashcan, whose single-threaded performance isn't anything to write home about.
