This is difficult to answer since the large, multi-room computers from the 1960s were eventually scaled down to include personal "workstations." According to the Computer History Museum, the first stand-alone personal computer was the Kenbak-1 which was sold for $750, but was essentially just lights and switches designed for learning programming. The computer that most closely resembles the personal computer as it has become known is the Datapoint 2200 which included a screen, keyboard, and storage. It was approximately the size of a typewriter.
