LOL! OK, now you win by just a few months. I helped a friend build one of
those in high school. But I decided to wait for the TRS-80.

Gotta luv the data cassette tape. Portable storage, even fit in shirt

Fred, I think you might win with that one. I remember those but my parents
said I was too young for such an expensive hobby. As a side note: I played
games such as Star Trek and Zork (no video) on a very old computer when I
worked for IBM as a Field Engineer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_360

I built a big board used a Z80 and had 64kb ram; had four 8 SSSD flops
on it. GOt the cabinet and flops from where I worked at the time
(racal-Milgo) from stuff that was mothballed. This was circa 1980-1981.

Yeah, I built it with my Junior Achievement advisor back in high school
It didn't do much even then.
