Would love to have it for decoration next to the SW cockpit. Much better than Darth Maul.  ;) ;D

No, no no Steve Jobs !!! :D

Both right   :D

A SUPERB EXAMPLE with the original packaging, manuals, cassette interface and basic tape, early documentation and provenance, and a COMMERCIALLY RARE LETTER FROM STEVE JOBS.
Saleroom Notice

Steve Wosniac, co-founder of Apple, would be delighted to autograph Apple I for the successful bidder at the end of the sale.

So, was it the Woz who sold it ?

I bete Steve Jobs still has nr. 1 ? Now THAT would fetch some money for sure...
