Turn and move, we comment that some very rare units of the Apple I, the first computer produced by Apple, are sold at auctions that raise thousands, if not millions of reais. In the most recent case, a functional piece of hardware was sold in London for almost R $ 2 million.
Given the rarity of the Apple I, it is clear that any component of the computer is seen as a historical artifact, even the manual computer – even more so if it is original, like the one being auctioned by RR Auction.
Over 40 years old, the manual is (apparently) in excellent condition and features the original Apple logo on the cover – designed by the company’s co-founder, Ronald Wayne – which shows the English scientist Isaac Newton sitting under a tree with an apple bright above it.

In addition to containing information about the operation of the Apple I, the manual also has a page describing the “6502 Hex Monitor”, a memory program developed by Steve Wozniak, also a co-founder of Apple Computer.
The bids for the original manual are already approaching R $ 40 thousand, but they may increase even more, since the auction will take place until this Wednesday (10/7). Who’s going?

As we reported, the auction ended last Wednesday and yesterday (6/11) RR Auction released some information about the winning bid in the Apple I manual.
According to the company, the manual was sold for about $ 13,000 (~ R $ 48,800), approximately R $ 10,000 more than the amount initially quoted. The bid was made by an anonymous technology entrepreneur from the United States.
In addition to the documents and technical information on Apple’s first computer, the auction also included a pair of photos signed by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak – one from Apple I and the other from Woz with Steve Jobs.
