Home computer The very first home computer was the Compucolor by Compucolor Corporation in 1976, soon followed by the Compucolor II which was made by Intelligent Systems Corp. They used the 8080 but otherwise sported very advanced features, including RAM starting at 8 KB, expandable up to 32 KB, 64 column by 32 line color CRT display, a professional keyboard, an enhanced BASIC interpreter , and a built-in floppy disk drive. It only sold a few thousand units, however, and the company went bust not long after.
