@PrinceOfDenmark @Em0nM4stodon Apple IIe in our case. Even computer number two, an IBM PC XT, was a shamelessly beige box. We did have a monitor for it that let you cheese between green, amber, or white text on black. Which I always set to amber.

@Em0nM4stodon I remember C64 seemed to be slightly more brown than beige. It could have been the function keys, or the lighting, but it seemed slightly darker than other computers.

@Em0nM4stodon
My first computer was an S-100 backplane with an S-100 Z-80 board complete with 64K memory. The linear +8volt and +/- 16volt power supplies and two 8" Shugart floppy drives were next to it on my filing cabinet.Later I mounted all that in the base of an old Vydec word processor, replacing the Vydec screen and keyboard with a wooden top to make a desk.
It was not very portable.
