Are you comparing a telephone, which can and only ever has (until the
speakerphone) been able to be used by one person and one person only?

The term "personal" as we use it for computers does not at all apply to
telephones.  Telephones are more akin to toothbrushes in terms of their
use, or in a family situation, the toilet.  It's not at all a fitting
analogy.
