My first computer had 48 K of memory, and NO hard drive. When you
turned it off, everything you had done disappeared. I plugged a
cassette tape recorder into it to save my basic and Pascal programs,
but that worked only about 30% of the time. No monitor either; I
plugged it into my TV set, and it displayed text only and then only in
all caps.
Dan,
I just was able to recall what was the first computer I've used in my
life (not counting a calculator): Electronica D3-28. It had 32 Kb RAM, no
HDD or floppy. It had a tape recorder built-in, which may or may not read
out what you had recorded, and it would depend on temperature, humidity,
tape... So, for the most important things, you'd better have a few
different copies.
Here is how it looked (found it on Wikipedia):
