Apparently, the history of the PC ends in 1991. Ianbrettcooper ( talk) 11:42, 5 July 2022 (UTC) reply

Could it be possible to emphasize, which one was really the first commercially available personal computer?

If this question has more answers, so then I think, the main question variant is like this: "which one was the first commercially available personal computer with keyboard and display?" (And then there could exists those for others questions, like "first personal computer with mouse and GUI" and "first personal computer even without display").

Now, it is very difficult to found the answer in that long text. Thank you very much.
