It was sold by RR Auction in Boston, US.
Boss Bobby Livingston said: “It is not only a marvel of early computing ingenuity but also launched one of the most successful companies in the world today.”
The Apple-1 was originally conceived by Steve Jobs and Steve ‘Woz’ Wozniak as a bare circuit board to be sold as a kit and completed by electronics hobbyists.
They eventually took the project further and built them into a complete personal computer.
Jobs and Wozniak produced about 200 Apple-1 computers and sold 175 of them.
