Replica of the Apple I, 1976 design. The Apple-1 was Apple's first product: a bare circuit board designed by Steve Wozniak and sold from 1976 for US$666.66, with a 6502 processor, 4 KB of RAM and a video terminal on board, to which the buyer added keyboard, power supply, case and a television. Only about 200 were made, and surviving originals are among the most valuable computers ever. The Esocop specimen is a modern functional replica built from Mike Willegal's reproduction of the original board.
