Now, does anyone of you know about a similar

(especialy about the desktop part) produced in series
before 1963?
All of the following are electronic desktop
personal computers used by engineers and mass
produced before 1963.
I have copies of magazine ads for these computers:
Electronic Associates Inc. Model TR-48 April 1962
Electronic Associates Inc. Model TR-10 June 1960
Donner Scientific Co. Model 3500 April 1960
Donner Scientific Co. Model 3400 February 1960
Of course there is also the Heath EC-1 introduced
in 1960 and the Heath ES-400 introduced in 1956.
These are all analog computers, of course. Hans was looking for digital
computers.
Berkeley's Simon could be considered (1951).
