Especially the pre-PC era with all the different types of machines and OSes. I'm a little too "young" for the KIM-1 but I remember the first computer I ever saw was one of those Sharp Pocke PCs. They looked like a pocket calculator with alphanumeric keys and display and only had a few byte of RAM. A friend of my parents showed it off some day in summer 1982. I was deeply impressed.
