In the United States, an original Apple computer, hand-built 45 years ago by founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, was sold for $400,000 via auction on November 9. When it went under the hammer in California, the original Apple-1, the "great-great-grandfather" of today's elegant chrome-and-glass Macbooks, was projected to earn up to $600,000. The computer is unique because it is covered in koa wood, a highly patinated Hawaiian wood.
