So, there are some qualifiers, like all
'firsts'. Full frame buffer,
or programmable character sets, for example.
That's the crux of the game, isn't it? Add a sufficient number of
qualifiers and a clone PC can be "first".
But ISC saya in plain English in the ad. "Color graphics terminal"--
and it's definitely raster-scan.
I suspect for "Color Graphics Display", meaning attached directly to
a mainframe, that likely candidates are military and aeronautical
kit. Think of Link, Grumman, etc...
