Extremely Rare Celebration Apple-1 Computer on Charity Buzz Auction
*Extremely Rare Celebration Apple-1 Computer* https://www.charitybuzz.com/catalog_items/extremely-rare-celebration-apple-1... Estimated Value: $1,000,000 Current Bid: $270,000 "The"Celebration" Apple-1 <http://apple1.charitybuzz.com/>is an original Apple-1 pre-NTI board that has many unique features, period correct power supply, original Apple-1 ACI cassette board (also populated with Robinson Nugent sockets), early Apple-1 BASIC cassettes, original marketing material, and the most complete documentation set of the known Apple-1 boards. The "Celebration" Apple-1 is extremely rare not only because of the scarcity of Apple-1 computers, but according to Steve Wozniak, co-founder of Apple Computer, no known PCB boards of this type were ever sold to the public. At this time, this is the only known Apple-1 to show the signs of starting out as a blank original-run board and not part of the two known production runs, so this board appears to be unique from all other known Apple-1 boards."

The board has lived in "celebration" Florida for the past 15 years. It was better than calling it the "Disney" Apple-1 and getting sued. corey cohen uǝɥoɔ ʎǝɹoɔ

With 50 caliber depleted uranium ammo. And with that darn bullet button clip rule in California means they will just have use belted ammo. Oh well. Should we upgrade them to electric Gatling?
