The original Apple 1 computer, designed by Apple's co-founders Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs in 1976, has been put up for auction. Even though it has scratches and bumps, an offer of 230 thousand dollars has already come.
The first Apple computer, designed 46 years ago by Apple founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, will be auctioned off.
The computer with the rare Hawaiian koa wooden case still works.
The technology giant's first product is also one of only 200 computers sold as kits.
Jobs, Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne designed Apple on April 1, 1976, in a garage in California.
To finance Apple 1 production, Jobs sold his VW Microbus, while Wozniak sold his HP-65 calculator for $500.
The computer, which has a small crack and some minor scratches and bumps on the part of the power unit on the motherboard, has already been offered 230 thousand dollars.
In 2014, another Apple 1 computer was sold at auction in New York for $905k.
