The Apple I auction ended today for $ 374,500, which equates to more than $ 760,000.

Next, a report from CNN about the product:

Would you pay that for a historic item like the Apple I? Consider that this specific unit is still functional and that, in the world, there should be fewer than 50 still existing. At the time of its launch, in 1976, the product cost $ 666.66. ?

Jobs’ memorandum was auctioned for $ 27,500 (just over $ 56,000), against $ 10-15,000 previously estimated.
