<Ah, but what was the first Microcomputer (including at least a monitor with

That could be a pdp-12 or a POLY-88 depending on your point of view.
Clearly a northstar horizon with a compucolor would fit that requirement
though at that time useres didn't feel the need for more than a good
terminal. That would be 1978.
Why bit mapped monitor?
