Dad's computer. He took out a loan for this one. Lugged it to France when we were there for his contract job. I remember he tried compiling code on it and it took hours. CGA graphics only.
Today in 1983, IBM introduced the IBM Personal Computer XT, which stands for eXtended Technology.
For a price of $4,995, it featured a Intel 8088 processor, a 10MB hard drive, eight expansion slots, serial port, 128 kB RAM, 40Kb ROM.

If a website asks you to press a special sequence of keys to prove you are a human and you do? Well, I guess, technically, you've pass the test. I mean, you've also infected your computer, but I'm pretty sure an AI couldn't install malware on itself, so, uh, congrats?
