No one person created the personal computer Many different companies developed different computer designs that gradually became known as personal computers. There is no agreement on what was the first personal computer, although the Commodore PET was the first mass-marketed complete personal computer, and the Apple II the most widely successful early personal computer.
The first marketed integrated mouse - shipped as a part of a computer and intended for personal computer navigation - came with the Xerox 8010 Star Information System in 1981.
The first successfully mass-marketed personal computer was the Commodore PET introduced in January 1977, but backordered and not available until later in the year.
Although The Xerox Alto (developed at Xerox PARC on March 1, 1973) was one of the first computers designed for individual use - making it arguably the first "Personal Computer" - it really wasn't marketed to the public, per se. The Alto was the first computer to be housed in a "desktop" configuration and to use a mouse-driven graphical user interface. The IBM model number 5150 was introduced on August 12, 1981. It ushered in the term "Personal Computer".
No. Adam Osborne invented the first portable computer and it was made and marketed by Osborne Computers
The Apple 1 computer was the first Apple product marketed by Steve Jobs.
The first official public Personal Computer was introducedin 1975, entitled MITS Altair.
Books were the first mass marketed product.
The term Personal Computer dates back to the early 1960's when people were predicting such devices at a time when computer users had to share a connection to a large mainframe computer. The Hewlett Packard 9100A was advertised as a personal computer in the late 1960's but would be considered a programmable calculator today. With the arrival of microprocessor chips in the early 1970's early personal computers were sold in a kit form that people had to build themselves. The Apple I was one of the first personal computers to be sold ready built. This was replaced by the Apple II which was marketed as a personal computer in 1977. Other early personal computers include the Commodore PET and the Tandy TRS-80.So... to answer the question: No Apple did not create the term Personal Computer but it was one of the first creators of personal computers.
The IBM 610 was the first personal computer, and it was launched in 1957.
Books were the first mass marketed product.
