Starting in the Late seventies, TRS-80 Model 1, 4k ram, cassette storage.
Later Apple IIe, Apple IIc, Power Mac 7100/66, Power Book G4 and an iPad
model 1.
My favorite was the Power Mac 7100/66 was loaded and cost $5,000 for
hardware alone. It served me well for ten years before the operating system
truly became obsolete.
Right now, I love this little portable iPad that is now my favorite.
