First Apple computer for sale for $ 1.5 million

He does that on the auction site eBay. It is the second time that he has attempted to sell the machine: previously he attempted the same with an amount of $ 1.75 million.

The Apple-1 was created together by Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs. The item offered for sale is extra rare due to the included wooden housing. The seller also immediately offers an old-fashioned screen.

It is not quite in perfect condition anymore. The video connection would be loose by now, because the glue used has dried out after many decades.

Collector’s item

The Apple-1 has become a rare collector’s item over the years, many of which are in museums. The computer was only produced on a small scale between 1976 and 1977, because Apple was still in its early years.

An Apple-1 was last sold in 2014. That happened for a lower amount of $ 905,000, which is the sales record to date. It remains to be seen whether the Apple-1 of 1.5 million will now break the record: that depends on whether a buyer is found.
