This was the first computer I ever had. Loved that thing.

Crazy how many people are saying that , considering how few they actually sold.

I think many were institutional purchases ...big companies, schools etc. so lots of folks interacting with the same machines maybe.

Underpowered, underutilized, and written off too soon. It could have competed directly against the IIE, but not against the IIGS, C=64/128, and early Macs.

My first computer too! So many memories of KQ1, a basic pacman clone, Donald Duck's Playground, flight simulator, Jumpman.

Excellent setup

One of the first computer games I ever played was King's Quest on the PCjr. A game with 16 colour graphics and 3 channel sound at that time was really special. The monitor was sharp & bright and it had a wireless keyboard too! This setup will always bring back such fond memories, and will forever be one of my favourites. It's beautiful. Thanks for posting!

Yep, this was my first computer when I was like 6. I was the only one that could figure out how to use the thing lol.
