My first computer was an Acorn System One. I spent a summer picking fruit at an orchard to pay for it.
1k of RAM, 512 bytes of ROM, a seven segment calculator display and hex keyboard.
I spent hours hand assembling 6502 code for it. I even created a stack based language for it in an attempt to teach my younger brother how to program.
