My first ever computer was a Timex Sinclair 1000. It was given to my by my uncle, who won it in a golf tournament. It came with a 16k memory expansion module, that plugged into the back of it, and a couple of cassette games, Frogger, and something else that I can't remember now. It took about 20-30 minutes to load the games by cassette. The membrane keyboard was terrible. Of course there was no modem or printer, so it was pretty limited. The best thing about it was that it was so small. Less than a year after I got it, the keyboard stopped accepting inputs, so I took it into the shop and smashed it to smithereens with a hammer.
