Prior to the IBM PC, ironically, Steve Jobs had coined the term "personal" computer. Prior to this term, they were called "micro" computers "home brew", "toy", "small", etc. The idea of one man, one machine. A computer that is personal -- like a toothbrush is personal. It is irony that IBM used the term on its microcomputer.
