I hadn't heard of "cyberdecks" until a month ago, but the term seems to have first become popular in November 2020: https://trends.google.com/explore?q=cyberdeck&date=all&geo=U...

Cyberdecks were featured prominently in video game Cyberpunk 2077 - the 2020 and 2023 spikes may have been caused by that game, and the subsequent expansion.

(I'd like to know who was using "cyberdeck" in 1976)

I think it's probably older than that, related to "cyberspace decks" in William Gibson's Neuromancer which was written in the early 80s on a 50-year-old mechanical typewriter.
