Sure, computers grew in popularity throughout the 90s but I wouldn't call them uncommon in the early 90s - they were all over the place especially in schools.

My kindergarten classroom had an Apple II in 1989. Our first grade classroom had old IBM PCs.

My parents bought our first computer in '94 and we were one of the later families to have one (these were actual middle class families).
