Ah, but what was the first Microcomputer (including at
least a monitor with
bitmap display, some sort of disk or floppy drive, as standard features,
and 'personal' in nature)?
Since you've ruled out vector displays, the earliest one I used was a PDP-8/e
with a VT8-E raster display interface and an RK02 disk (or was it RK03?).
First available in 1971 if memory serves, though I didn't use it until the
late 70s.
