While searching for the origin of personal computer, Shapiro uncovered several computing claims. Stewart Brand, founder of Whole Earth Catalog, says on his Web site that he first referred to a “personal computer” in a 1976 book; and GUI pioneer Alan Kay is said to have used the term in a paper published in 1972.
But a search on JSTOR’s general science archive turned up what Shapiro says is the earliest recorded use of personal computer, in the October 4,1968, issue of Science. The issue contains a Hewlett-Packard advertisement for its new HP 9100A. “The new Hewlett-Packard 9100A personal computer,” the ad says, is “ready, willing and able …to relieve you of waiting to get on the big computer.” The $4900 device---a desktop scientific calculator equipped with magnetic cars---does not seem like much of a computer nowadays. And at 40 pounds, it was not very personal, either. But according to Shapiro, it was the first device to be called a personal computer.
