I think that was taken in 1984.
The computer is a 1982 mk1 Sinclair Spectrum inside a DK Tronics custom keyboard. The leads at the back were pirating devices, and Microdrives, and a thermal printer.
The white computer you may just be able to make out behind my shoulder is a 1980 ZX-80 which had 1k of RAM. They are now worth up to £500. Only 60,000 were made.
I actually used to get online with this kit. LOL One had to get up in the middle of the night, dial a number on the telephone, listen for the carrier tone. Hang-up. Connect phone to acoustic modem, dial up again, and get on to a bboard (and hide from the parents when the phone bill arrrived).
