Does anyone know what kinds of computers the FBI used during the 80s?
Specifically 1984. What kind of computer would an agent have, if one even had a personal work computer.

Probably a terminal, not a computer.

IBM 3278 M2 New Display Station.
It woud be attached to a S/390 almost certainly running VM. There was a n office/email system that ran under VM called PROFS.
Ollie North got caught mainly because he didn't realise that the White House PROFS data base was backed up hourly. They found all the evidence about his Contra dealings in the backups even though he'd deleted his copies.

I'm aware that Imgur.com will stop allowing adult images since 15th of May. I'm taking actions to backup as much data as possible.
