John,
I have the manuals for both systems. I don't get the impression that the
G-15 was sold as a "personal computer" in the same way as the Royal McBee
LGP-23/30 were. The Bendix has an analog computing aspect as well so it's
a different beast. I am sure people used them for some degree of personal
computing, but I never read about them that way.

THe LGP-30 was to arguably the first personal
electronic (non analog)
computer, my opinion, but it covers all of the bases as I see them. A
relatively small stand alone real time general purpose electronic
computer
that one person could operate.
The Bendix G-15 also fits that description.
