Probably the Atari 8 64K. 5 1/4 floppy drive, which beat that cassette recorder you and I both probably struggled with for our TI4A. That's right, I had one of those, too; 1981. I was in college at the time, just married, and had my father-in-law over visiting. I had him wait 15 minutes while I wrote some code, which resulted in a small red flashing square transversing the 13" black and white television set. I'm sure he was hoping his daughter could figure a way out of the marriage after that experience, but funny thing, I ended up in the same profession, but while he spent $100,000 on computer systems and software for his practice, I wrote my own system, which was better, more dependable, and highly accurate all for the cost of $6,000 in computer and printer hardware. BTW, still married to the same wonderful woman now for over 40 years, but now we have a 25" black and white t.v., which is a good thing, because my eyesight would struggle seeing that flashing square on the old set.
