Steve Job's personal Macintosh computer up for auction.
#Apple#Mac
A Macintosh SE computer that was used by tech legend Steve Jobs is going on the auction block in New York on October 25 as part of Bonham's History of Science and Technology auction, where the unit is estimated to go for US$200,000 to $300,000.
With its then-novel all-in-one design, graphic user interface, and mouse, it's understandable why the Macintosh marked a turning point in the history of computers.
When it was conceived of in 1979, the Mac, as it is often called, was envisioned by Apple's Jef Raskin as an appliance computer aimed at the low-end of the personal computer market that would be easy to use, but nothing revolutionary.
The Jobs Macintosh will go on sale in live bidding in New York on October 22 beginning at 2:00 pm EDT.
