Encyclopedic overview
This category, personal computers, contains articles related to those microcomputers intended for use by individual people primarily for (home) office and productivity applications and telecommunications. However other uses such as gaming, playing music, and editing personal photographs and home movies are also a significant, and growing, part of personal computer activities. There are separate Wikipedia categories for the early microcomputers of the 1970s, as well as the many home computers of the 1980s (which were also sometimes used for small-scale office work).
