Loved the TRS-80 at the time, but when I saw the Apple II, I was just awestruck by it's awesomeness. Couldn't afford one in those days. Also couldn't afford the TRS-80. I had made friends with the manager of the local Radio Shack and he let me diddle with their display model to my heart's content.
My own computer was a Quest "Super Elf."
OK
you win!
Or how about the Ohio Scientific C1P with 8K RAM, NO display, or disc drive with memory retention on a audio cassette player. Always booted into BASIC.
