5 out of 10, but most were just guesses.

I think the score is indicative of age i.e 6 years = 1 point, I got 5 and im 30+.

erm that makes me 48. Most of them were 80s, so anyone below 40 should do OK

Nah I think there were some from every decade from 60's.

9/10 I got one of the consoles wrong.

I remember the beastie in question 6 all too well since it was a standard IBM XT 286 desktop in a "luggable" case and at the time I worked as a hardware engineer for an IBM dealership. I fixed dozens of them.
The only non standard parts were the CRT tube, modified housing for the system unit and a couple of swivels on a standard IBM keyboard.
Unreliable buggers since everything came unseated including the RAM chips when being lugged.

I resurrected a couple of Commodore Pets for a museum a few years ago, that was quite a challenge. Fortunately I still had parts from when I worked for a library mainframe company that used them for branch backup units in the event of comms failures.

Apple Lisas were my first work computer.

They seemed to attract dirt. It may just be my dodgy memory, but the cases always looked dirty.
