Christie's to auction a customized Apple I this month

When we talk about Apple computers and especially the "vintage" models, it is impossible not to look back and find data or details of that Apple I. These computers are becoming objects highly appreciated by collectors and auction houses know it. For this reason, when they have one of these computers, they are in charge of advertising it to the maximum. If we talk about auction houses there are many well-known ones, in this case we are facing one of the important ones and that is that Christie's will this time be in charge of putting an Apple I up for auction, but not a regular one, it is a computer with some improvements over the original version, obviously fully functional and unique.

Christie's has already auctioned products like this Apple I on some occasion, last July 2013 the same auction house managed to auction one of these Apple computers, called 'Apple I' for $ 387.750. On that occasion the computer that Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak made in 1976, became the highest paid online auction object, in this case they expect to get between 300.000 and 500.000 dollars for the Apple I.

But the model they have now on the auction table is something different from that time in 2013. In this case, the Apple I adds a green metal casing, a bit more RAM than the original equipment created by Jobs and Woz. , exactly three times more, going from the original 4KB to 12KB, a chip that allows users to program it or execute programs in a faster way. These are some of the changes that can be found in this machine that will be auctioned el June 15, 2017 New York inside Rockefeller Center.
