My first PC was a bare board and 2000+ parts.

Used for many years even after faster systems came out. Was bullet
proof.

Some of the programs (like designing atomic bombs G) were started
Friday afternoon and ran until finished Monday morning.

Well, not quite that old, but I've got a Data General
Nova 1200 with 32k of core memory, a Cosmac Elf,
and a Sol 20. Somewhere lurking about is also a
Sinclair ZX81, and I just stumbled across my Radio
Shack Pocket Computer last week (essentially a
calculator that runs BASIC). Oh, I've also got a
Victor four function video display calculator (vector
display). All of them still work too.
