I believe that International Business Machines built the first computers for sale, and they were basically built according the the customers requirements. Other companies followed suit, such as Burroughs. It was not until IBM introduced the 360 model that a standardized computer was offered for sale.
The first commercial computer in the US (sold in quantity more than one and designed to the manufacturer's specification, not the customer's) was made by Remington Rand beginning in 1951, it was the UNIVAC I. IBM followed in 1952 with its 701.
IBM's 709, 7090, 7094, and 7094 II scientific computer line and 705 I, 705 II, 705 III, and 7080 business computer line; long predated the 360 family as standardized compatible computers. The main thing the 360 family did in 1964 was produce a unified scientific/business computer architecture covering a wide range of implementation and price/performance options, making it attractive to a wider customer base.
In the US the first UNIVAC I was sold to the Census Bureau for about 1/10 of what it cost to build, in 1951. Prior to this computers were not "sold" as products, but built as one of a kind machines on "cost + fixed fee" contracts.
The UNIVAC I (Universal Automatic Computer) was the first commercial computer. It was principally designed by John Presper Eckert and John W. Mauchly, who also invented the ENIAC (the first general-purpose electronic computer). Initially two UNIVAC I were installed, but eventually 48 were sold. It was the first computer to handle both numerical and alphabetic information with equal ease. The UNIVAC was a vacuum tube computer, and its input was through magnetic tape; storage was magnetic tapes or a magnetic drum.
The IBM 701 came out in 1953, and was designed exclusively for business applications. It too was a vacuum tube computer, with a card reader and card punch units for input and output, and eventually 19 were sold.
The first computer, The UNIVAC 1, was sold to the United States Cencus Bureau on March 31, 1951.
The Altair 8800 from 1975 was sold as a mail-order kit and is widely recognized as the spark that led to the personal computer revolution over the next few years.
