Your citation is wrong, the first mouse shipped as part of a personal computer system would have been the Lisa.

The Lisa was first introduced in January 1983 (announced on January 19) at a cost of $9,995 US ($20,600 in Nov. 2006 dollars).

One would be hardpressed to call $20,000 computer a personal computer.
