The Kenbak-1 has often been considered "the first personal computer." It was designed, built, and marketed by John V. Blankenbaker in 1971, and was made before microprocessors were available. In spite of it not being commercially successful (only about 52 were made) it had a lasting impact and taught scores of students. It was named the "first personal computer" by computer industry experts at Boston's "The Computer Museum" in 1986 and by the Computer History Museum in Mountain View, CA, the Computer Museum of America in Roswell Georgia, the Deutsches Museum in Munich Germany, and other major computer museums.
