The first computer I owned was a RCA Cosmac 1802 development board with 256 bytes of RAM and the programs had to be entered in assembly code. I eventually bought a Teletype ASR 33 printing terminal with attached paper tape reader to load programs from. Probably from early 1980's.

Oh man, that Cosmac sounds cool - I have been building a couple of computers on a breadboard to relive that era :)
I used a teletype in my first gig out of school running backups on the hospital vax/pdp-11 machines :)
