What kind of product or service was advertised in the first ever spam email?

• Computer:On May 3, 1978, the Internet witnessed the first email spam message. The unsolicited bulk email was sent by Gary Thuerk, a marketing manager, promoting a new model of computer. Thuerk, blasted out his message to 400 users on ARPANET, the precursor to the modern internet. At the time, only 2,600 email addresses existed. Though the mass-message wasn’t called spam at the time, it earned all the scorn you’d expect from email spam. Complaints started pouring in almost immediately and ARPANET made Thuerk promise never to do it again.
