“Instead of paying top dollar for the newest tech products, some people are spending a lot of money on the oldest tech products. One of Apple’s original computers, known as the Apple 1, sold for $387,750 in a Christie’s online auction on Tuesday. It’s the highest priced item ever sold in one of Christie’s online-only auctions. The computer was built in Steve Jobs’ parents’ garage and designed by Steve Wozniak. There’s no monitor, but Christie’s says that the device is still functional. While nearly $400,000 is a lot of cash, it’s less than the price of another Apple 1 that was auctioned off in May. Sold by German auction house Breker, that Apple 1 fetched $671,400 — but, it had a monitor.”
