NEW YORK, Oct. 22 (UPI) -- A working 1976 Apple-1 computer, one of the first ever built by tech pioneers Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, sold for $750,000 at Bonhams' History of Science auction in New York Wednesday, with the total value of the sale coming to $905,000 after auction house premiums.
The hand-built motherboard, believed to be one of the first 50 assembled by Wozniak and Jobs for the original production order, was expected to sell for between $300,000 and $500,000, but ended up nearly doubling in value.
