  • There are only 57 verified Apple-1 computers in existence and we are privileged to have witnessed a demo of this ultra rare original Apple 1 computer. Expert Corey Cohen of the VCF gives us an in-depth look at an original Apple 1 that he restored and demonstrated at Vintage Computer Festival East. The Apple I is the first product from Apple Computers which is now the highest valued company in the world and also produced products such as the Macintosh, Mac, iMac, MacBook, MacBookPro, iPod, iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch . The Apple 1 was designed and built in Silicon Valley by Steve Wozniak and was marketed by Steve Jobs and sold through an electronics store called the Byte Shop. Wozniak demonstrated the first prototype in July 1976 at the Homebrew Computer Club in Palo Alto, California. The Apple-1 went on sale in July 1976 at a price of US $666.66 because Wozniak "liked repeating digits" As of January 23, 2020, a functioning, registered Apple I is listed on eBay for US $1,750,000.00. This is a very rare original NTI motherboard.

    I'm glad to see apple has kept up the tradition of making people buy essential components separately under the guise of "an opportunity" .
    From the beginning to now, apple: "accessories" not included

    • @dunebasher1971
      @dunebasher1971 Před rokem

      At the time, it wasn't unusual to have to buy additional items in order to use your computer properly. If you bought an Atari or Commodore PET (after the original PET 2001), you had to buy a proprietary Atari or Commodore tape deck. If you had a Sinclair ZX80 or ZX81 you had to buy a 16K RAM pack if you wanted to do anything more than the most absolute basic things, since the computer only shipped with 1K RAM. If you bought a Sharp MZ80K you had to buy an operating system, since it wasn't sold with one... and on, and on.
      As for more modern times, I'm not sure what you mean. Every Apple product I've bought has had all the essential components sold with it. It was only in 2020 that they stopped providing a charging brick with iPhones, but they do still include the cable.

    I don't know if it came with the Apple 1, but when I bought my Apple 2 it came with a basic phone directory program that would poke new entries into the code, data statements I think, so that when you saved the program to disk it would also save the entries. I do not believe there was anyway to store data files to tape.
