In 1981 our HS modified a larger class room to create a computer room/lab inside. 5 computer stations were set up. Think that the room even had AC. Plenty of money spent, don't recall what computers were purchased.

In 1981 I was in a customers home, he had a computer on his dinning room table. It was the size of a A/V Receiver, it had a few rows of LED 's on the front panel. He said he had to enter lines of code into it, the book he had was almost as big. He had a small monitor hooked up to it. Looking at photos on line, it must of been an Altair.
