I am 50 (going on 29) and remember connections other than these in devices like the Commodore 64.

That 5 pin DIN was on the older C64s for the AV port. I had a newer one as well and they switched to an 8 pin variant. C64s also used similar DIN connectors for the power supply and disk drive.

Our family's first computer was an Acer Anyware, 386 with a greyscale display. We had a serial trackball for it.

Ahhh, the good ol' days playing Wumpus - "I smell a Wumpus!" - or "Adventure" - "It is dark. You may be eaten by a grue." Went through rolls of paper in the old teletype.

I don't know what my family's first computer was called, but I remember it ran DOS, and I remember the Lemmings demo having a really, really hard third level.
