The first home computers could do anything any other computer could, if you could fit it in their tiny memories.

However the first electronic computers in the 1940s and 1950s had exactly the same problem, very tiny memories.

How is the first home computer different from the computers that are in our homes now?

The first "home computers" were more hobbyist computers than home computers. You really had to be more interested in them as a hobby that was going to consume much of your time rather than as a tool that was going to be useful. Many of them came in kits with inadequate instructions that you would have to assemble using a soldering iron, hopefully you made no mistakes! The first one I saw advertised in an electronics magazine was called the Mark-8 using the Intel 8008 microprocessor. You could order a package including the schematics, PC board artwork, and parts list (you had to etch the boards yourself and buy the parts on your own) or you could order a set of already etched boards (you still had to buy the parts on your own). The Mark-8 had no I/O devices, so you would have to improvise these!
