True in that it's personal, and a computing device. The most basic definition is: "A microcomputer designed for use by one person at a time" But really I'd say FALSE if you're more specific and think of a "personal computer" as the IBM-standard set in the 1980s and 1990s. My first computer I remember was when my parents bought an Apple IIGS (fifth in the Apple II series and not like an IBM, I know!) and that, for me was a personal computer. The iPod seems more like a "personal entertainment device".
