I think I still have an old TRS-80 model 2 computer with an 8 inch drive in my mom's attic from when I worked at Radio Shack 30+ years ago. 32k of RAM, baby.

They were throwing it out. No idea what made me bring it home. I swear that thing weighs 100 pounds. They sold for like 3 grand in the very early 80s (12 grand in today's money).
