Unless the box is mislabeled, it contains an ancient 68000-based desktop
computer that runs BASIC and/or Pascal (I think BASIC was standard and
Pascal was optional). It has a self-contained CRT display.

Was the person who delivered it wearing psychedelic bellbottoms and a
tie-dye T-shirt? If so, can you ask them to hold the time portal open?
There are a few things I need to go back and fix.
