In the picture you can see the first personal computer in history: the Apple I.
Its appearance is certainly very different from what we would expect because it was basically a motherboard with no fixture such as the keyboard or the screen.
In fact, the users who purchased the Apple I were mostly electronics hobbyists, which can assemble by themselves their PC.

The curious thing is that, at that time, it was very difficult to find parts for assembly because the PC market was in its infancy, so users often built their 'case' (the outer box of the computer) using wood!

Today, there are very few examples of Apple I: in 2012, in New York, one of the last functioning examples was sold for $ 374,000!
