The 1976 Apple computers came equipped with an 8k memory. This was significantly less than the Apple computers today. It also came with an original manual and letter from Steve Jobs. It was one of the first computers to be produced.

Unfortunately, the computers did not come with a monitor or a keyboard. At the time, they were considered expensive and very little people felt they had a use for it. It’s original price was set at $666.66. Thats about $3,000 in todays world if you take inflation to account.
