DEC PDP-8, 1965.
It was the world’s first mass-produced minicomputer. At $18,500, it cost less than any system Digital had built before it. It sold about 50,000 units (300,000 with all variants), a record broken only by the PDP-11 later. In its basic configuration it had 4K 12-bit words memory, of which the FOCAL interpreter took up three, leaving only 1K (the functional equivalent of 2kB, since one word could hold two characters) for programs. The Lunar Lander simulation, for a while the most popular computer game, was written on such a machine.
