A PC in Dr. Halsey's lab.

A Personal computer, often abbreviated as PC, is a self-contained human computer usable by only one person at a time. It may be used as a home computer, or may be found in an office, school, and likely connected to a local network.

Humanity has multiple types of personal computers:

Halo on the PC

Halo was originally intended for the Macintosh, as a sequel to Bungie's popular game Marathon: Infinity. However, with the release of the Xbox, and Microsoft's purchase of Bungie Software, the game was scrapped and ported as a first-person shooter on the Xbox.

In 2001 however, Bungie along with Gearbox Studios shipped a PC version of Halo which became popular with many PC gamers. However, many were disappointed with the netcode, and people complained that the port was poorly designed, causing lag in online play. Halo PC was created to fix these problems, eventually a program called Halo: Custom Edition followed.

Halo 2 was ported to the Windows Vista operating system in 2007, titled Halo 2 Vista.
