First Apple computer sells for nearly $388000 - Wall Street Journal

Associated Press NEW YORK — An original Apple computer from 1976 has sold at auction for nearly $388,000. Known as the Apple 1, it was one of the first Apple computers ever built. It sold on Monday for $387,750 at a Christie's online-only auction. The auction house did not disclose the name of the buyer. The seller was a retired school psychologist from Sacramento, Calif. The Apple 1 was built by Steve Wozniak. Vintage Apple products have become a hot item since Steve Jobs' death in October 2011. Jobs joined forces with Wozniak to build computer prototypes in a California garage. Another Apple 1 was sold in May for a record $671,400 by a German auction house. It broke a previous record of $640,000 set in November. —Copyright 2013 Associated Press • Invalid email address. • You can't enter more than 20 emails. • Seperate multiple addresses with Commas. • Must enter an email address. • You must enter the verification code below to send. • Invalid entry: Please type the verification code again. via Technology - Google News http://news.google.com/news/url?sa=t&fd=R&usg=AFQjCNGVHEGvpoRRSUNJnrLyAnQW6hU47g&url=http://online.wsj.com/article/APf8ea033edb8e47a38fc6c0bfa0998543.html
