The "FIRST PC"...

This not only makes it the first home computer, but the first kitchen
computer as well! Didn't Honeywell try to market a kitchen computer
in the late 70's or early 80's? I'm sure it would have taken off, if
only they had been the first. :-)

But, sadly, without internal video circuitry, it can't be a
personal computer. <snort!> :-)
