The IBM PCJr!

I have fond memories of that piece of junk, that's where my love of DOS came from.



I don't remember which model we had, probably the cheaper of the two, so I guess these would be the specs:
8088 4.77 MHz CPU
64K Memory
5.25 Floppy Drive
Two cartridge slots
VGA graphics (Video Gate Array, not the VGA you're thinking of)


That was my best friend's second computer.  Ancient Art of War on that thing was great fun.  I remember Charlie Chaplin being the mascot.  Lol
