An airgapped system is one that's basically unusable because you can't communicate with other systems.

Can't help but think back to my youth where nearly every system was airgapped, but were plenty usable regardless.

A system can be more than one computer, i.e. mainframe. Airgapped systems can include multiple computers that are disconnected from external networks. They can be very useful for specialized applications.
