When I was young, they would have computers out for demo at places like
KMart and Aire-Way.  I don't remember which brands... like Commodore or TI...
and have things running.  I would always want to stop and play with them.  I
think my parents, when I was with them, probably got to where they avoided the
electronics area if at all possible.  ;)
