@Em0nM4stodon I had a red and white punch card computer with 8 different colored buttons and a sizeable stack of programs - VTECH Little Talking Scholar, just looked it up!. I enjoyed it a lot as a toddler
A few years later though I upgraded to a beige Packard Bell running Windows 95 and DOS. -

@Em0nM4stodon my first computer was given to me by my dads girlfriend, and was in a bright red painted metal case. Prior to that I used my dads computer, which was black.
The first computer I ever assembled myself was black, and the first prebuilt computer I ever disassembled was black. All the computers I ever used in school were also black.
First laptop I ever had was silver. When I had a Macbook it was silver, and now my current laptop is silver.
