IBM Compatible XT Personal Computer.
I was at High School when I had my first computer, it was a XT Personal Computer, a big desktop CPU box with CGA monitor on top, and a Keyboard attached, without mouse.
It was a new technology in that age, and I was a first person who had Computer in my housing complex.
You can write using WordStar and build a spreadsheet using Lotus 123, and play games like Space Commander, Pac-man and Digger.
The CPU using 8088 microprocessor chip, 640 kilobyte RAM, with two 5.25 inch 360KB Floppy Disk Drive, and a Key to lock your computer, it was a real key like a door key, if you lock it, your computer will can't be used by other person.
The CGA Monitor only can showing 16 color in text mode and 4 color in graphic mode, but I was suitable for the software we used with this computer.
I used this computer to write my thesis for my University Graduate.
And after I had a job and had money, I bought a 486 Computer to change this lovely XT Computer.
I still keep this XT Computer in my house, mixed with unused things. I don't know if it is still work or not.

The removal of data definitely directs a person to some sense of discontent.
However for the simplicity of end users, Specialists developed an alternative for data corruption problems.
If a deletion of data problem is occured, person got to know which tool or software package to apply so that he can handle this case of data files loss.
