Everyone keeps bragging about those record players, but do you have your first computer? I just found mine. It's gross, but it's mine.

I had one of those! Think I was like 2 or 3 and got mesmerized by the *brrrrrrrrrr* the hubs made when you turned them.

Yes! This one is still just as noisy as ever. I don't want to throw it away because it is so old and so cool, but it's honestly disgusting junk at this point. Haha

Core memory unlocked. I had to stare at this for a while, those dials, the punch cards, a grinding sound. I'm certain I had this.

I think i tried to put cookies into one of those once when I was really little. I don't think it was mine.

That's super cool! I do happen to have my first computer. It's a IBM PCjr with all the floppy disks, cartridges, and manuals that come with it, along with some games. I also have the old school dot matrix printer for it too.
