Here’s how much an Apple computer hand-built by Steve Wozniak sold for
A super-rare Apple-I computer, hand-built by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, was sold at an auction and fetched $500,000 (about Rs 3.7 crore), media report says.
More than doubling its $200,000 starting bid, the Apple-I Personal Computer was bought by a professor at Chaffey College in 1976. The Apple-I was famously originally sold for $666.66, or the equivalent of approximately $3,211 in 2021 money, reports AppleInsider.
That original price is therefore 0.64 per cent of the half million dollars achieved at is auction by John Moran Auctioneers and Appraisers, in Monrovia, California, as per the report.
The auctioneer’s final listing confirms the $500,000 successful bid, and states that the estimate was between $400,000 and $600,000.
