I'm not sure what kind of computer this is; maybe a TRS-80 Color? At any rate, these kids are creeping me the fuck out. Their faces look really fucked up from this angle.
EDIT: After some research I have determined that it is indeed a TRS-80 Color Computer.

I think it's partly because each of them seem to have the exact same creepily smiling FACE, only different hair. Twins? Nay, I suggest they are clones, clones made for and abused by marketers from the dawn of the pc age.

If the kid on the right smoked about a billion cigarettes, to make his face all damaged and droopy, he'd look just like John Kerry.

And the super mini joysticks make it look like they are having tea instead of playing a video game.
I think it's the same face, mirrored and some hair added.

Wait, I just noticed something.
I'm too young to have used a TRS-80, so maybe this was the norm, but it looks to me like the disk is actually out of the drive. Robb, can you shed any light on this?
