Check this out for sale on ebay:

Original Apple 1 computer for sale

Actually it was for sale but didn't sell, which really surprises me. Now I'm sure there are some after market closes nagotiation going on. Here is some more information on the computer:

The starting bid for the Apple-1 is US$50,000. What do you get with your winning bid? A non-working Apple 1 motherboard, the original shipping box (with the return address being the home of Steve Jobs' parents), and the original manual, complete with schematics on how to take the motherboard and build a workable computer out of it.

There's also a tape interface card, used to load or save software from cassette tapes. The card comes with a manual and a cassette with a typed label that says "BASIC" on it.

If you're a fan of Steve Jobs, you'll want two of the items that are included. The first is a letter signed by Steve Jobs that explains how to connect a keyboard and monitor to the computer, and telling the buyer (someone who wanted to be a dealer) when dealer applications would be available. The second is a hand-typed invoice for the computer, showing "Steven" as the salesman for the machine.

Now the story wouldn't be complete with out pictures:

So is anyone going to call the phone number on the invoice? Tongue
