The first computer I bought for myself was a PS/1. Intel 286 processor and DOS4, which could use DOS shell, a bit like the original Windows 1. Did everything I thought I would ever need, big mistake. The power supply was in the monitor and the disk drives were non standard. Long gone now, I still have a memory card (also non standard) somewhere.
