Depending on your definitions, the oldest computer I have
is a Mathatronics Mathatron model 4-24, serial number 00133,
circa 1964. While this machine only deals with numbers, it
has multiple storage registers, is programmable, and can do decision-based branching. It also had Input/Output capability.
I also have a Mathatron model 8-48, which dates from 1965
(it has more memory). I've been in touch with one of the
designers and the design dates from 1963. Unfortunately,
neither of my machines is functional.

my webiste at

The oldest full-blown computer I have is a HP2100S.

I was just curious to know what was the oldest computer any of you
own.
