I went through my photo archives, and it looks like that sadly this is the only photo I have (or at least could find) of my own computer set up and running.
It was taken late in the evening in a not very well-lit room, in my parental home, and unfortunately I didn't frame the photo very well, as the slotexpander with audio extension cartridges and CompactFlash cartreader cart is only barely visible at the bottom…

Lorenz Miniero recently recovered and restored some of his earliest projects written in for the MSX homecomputer, which were stored on data cassette tapes.
In order to share them with the world, for others to either to learn from or 'laugh' at, he uploaded the code to GitHub:

What's gone wrong with our desktop computers?
There was a time I would just turn on my and I'd be able to use it right away.
Also, if I left it on unattended, I wouldn't come back to it rebooted because the OS thought it needed an update right then and there.

Not to mention it hung itself during all the updates, the first time it rebooted.
