The first Apple-stamped products still arouse the curiosity of business fans around the world. This is how one of the Apple I that Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak had manufactured in the garage of this first has just been sold in Boston.
Still in working order, it is one of the rare models still in circulation and often put up for sale by large companies during auctions. It was thus completely restored in 2019, which allowed it to be functional during a full eight-hour test.
Jobs and Wozniak are said to have built nearly 200 Apple I's in the years 1976 and 1977 and sold nearly 175, which adds to the scarcity of models that still work. Sold at the time 666.66 euros each, they were among the first models of personal computers already assembled.
A low price compared to another sale
Acquired by the Michigan computer store SoftWareHouse in the 1980s as part of an exchange with a more modern IBM machine, it had been exhibited within this store before being stored.
If the amount of the sale seems impressive, it is nothing compared to the sale of another Apple-I in 2014 in New York: he had found a buyer for almost 905,000 euros.
