In our front office we have a SEL 8000 complete with paper tape reader, teletype, and switch panel, made in the early 70's. I still work on their products from the mid/late 70s. First true 32 bit super-mini. Mind you, I never had one in my home
I used to maintain some VAX 11/780 systems. I didn't have one at home either, but I did use one at work for my FORTRAN homework.
My first computer I programmed - in FORTRAN - was a Pr1me 25/30. So-called because it was a 300 chassis (I think the 100-series was pretty much a rebadged MULTICS Honeywell), with a Pr1me 250 cpu board in it. It ran Pr1mos v18.3, a very nice little OS for its time. I still miss it (and its successor, v19.4). The v18/v19 transition was a major step-change - it died about v23 which superficially wasn't much different from v19.
