Forty-five years ago, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak built an original Apple computer which is going to be one of the items in bidding on Tuesday in the United States. The computer was also known as Chaffey college and was one of the 200 computers first made by Jobs and Wozniak which led to the now $2 trillion company. The computer becomes more unique and rarer as it is enveloped in koa wood – a richly patinated wood native to Hawaii. Only a few of those 200 were made like this.
The functioning Apple-1 is anticipated to rise to $600,000 at an auction in California. Both Jobs and Wozniak mostly sold Apple-1s to computer shops. The auction house stated that one of them decided to encase some of them in wood. Apple 1 expert Corey Cohen started that this computer could be referred to as the holy grail for all the tech collectors which makes it much more exciting and intriguing for a lot of people. Cohen also mentioned that people just want to see what kind of people would collect Apple 1 computers.

Auction house John Moran Auctioneers explains that the device has only ever had two holders. The auction house’s website states that it was originally acquired by an electronics professor at Chaffey College in California, who then traded it to his student in 1977. The computer has a 1986 Panasonic video monitor installed. The student purchased it for just $650 at the time. A functioning Apple-1 was also sold in 2014 by Bonhams for a whopping $900,000. Apple successfully thrived under Jobs in the 1980s but staggered after Jobs and Wozniak left. When he returned he supervised the development and launch of the iPod and iPhone. He died in 2011. Due to the effort of Jobs and Wozniak the company reached success and did things that were once considered impossible.
