Original »Apple 1 Computer«, 1976
This is the sensational 1st product of today's highestvalued
company (approx. 600 billion US$) ever. -- The
»Apple 1« was designed and built by Steve Wozniak in
the famous 'electronical heaven' of "Silicon Valley",
USA, and was marketed in April 1976 by Wozniak and
Steve Jobs through an electronics retail chain, the 'Byte
Shop', which bought the first 50 units. -- The »Apple 1«
was always delivered as a motherboard only and is seen
here with the very rare original 'NTI' sign. The peripheral
equipment such as power pack, keyboard, monitor
and cassette recorder had to be obtained personally by
the user. »Apple« never offered a housing; every user
had to make his own. -- The »Apple 1« was the 1st PC
in the world with monitor and keyboard access! -- The
peripheral items are authentic and correspond to the
motherboard; the power pack has the same 'transformer'
which was on the market in 1976 and which was
recommended by »Apple«. The keyboard is a 'Datanetics
ASCII' always suggested by »Apple« for the »Apple
1« and later also used for the »Apple 2«. -- The monitor
is a b/w video control set by Sanyo as normally used by
»Apple 1« owners. -- The cassette recorder, recommended
by »Apple«, is an original 'Panasonic 2102
Recorder'. -- Only 200 examples of the »Apple 1« were
ever made. According to the top-rated 'Apple 1 Registry'
by Mike Willegal, today there are only 43 sets in
existance worldwide, but just 6 of these are in fullyworking
condition, and the example offered here is
one of those! We prepared a 7-minute video demonstration
which you can find on / auction
TeamBreker -- The demo shows the direct input into the
WOZ-monitor: The »Apple 1« did not have an operating
system, just a so-called "monitor" program which provided
the interface between keyboard entry -- CPU --
memory and monitor exit. Any more sophisticated software
system -- like 'Basic' -- had to be loaded on cassettes.
Therefore, a cassette-interface-card was required
which was offered by »Apple« optionally. The present
set contains a modern replica card and the software
cassettes are authentic reproductions too. -- 'Basic' was
available for the »Apple 1« at the beginning of 1977
only. In February 1977 »Apple« changed their first logo
depicting Isaac Newton under a 'paradisical' apple tree
to the one which is still used today. The documentation
('Apple 1 Manual') included here still shows the primary
logo; this documentation copy corresponds with
the original one and the manual and schematic plan
show the original signatures of Steve Wozniak. -- To
date, the only fully-working »Apple 1 set« in very similar
condition as this one here, was auctioned in New
York in June 2012 for US$ 374,500.- (www.
macrumors.com/2012/06/15/functioning-apple-1-sellsfor-
375000-at-sothebys-auction/) -- The provenance of
this »Apple 1« unit has been known of and documented
since 1993. The former vendor has framed and numbered
this set and 3 others. -- The current vendor has
offered to set up, install and put it into operation anywhere
in the world in exchange of his expenses. -- This
»Apple 1« set on offer here is 100 % authentic and in
full working condition! -- Already a legendary milestone
from the dynamic dawn of the personal computer
age! - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี
Wozniak the genius
yeppp
Steve Jobs created the computer and built it. Steve Wozniak did absolutely nothing literally nothing! Zero!! That's why Steve Jobs had more money. He was better than Woz. Woz never made a computer in his life
@@turkeyleg1 LMAO fanboy
@@turkeyleg1 ha ha no
@@turkeyleg1 It's the same as you think the one who raised you is your biological father?
This is so deep. It just gives you goosebumps to see the pics of Woz and Steve. It's like their visiting us from the 70s. The owner of this machine and those autographed manuals should be very proud. Very impressed with the operator!
you know that comment instantly makes you a fan boy right ?
Rich E not really, I hate apple but this is srsly just amazing, take you on a trip back to steves dad's old garage where it all started...
Go watch the movie "jobs"
seen it, i didnt connect
It was sold at an auction? I wonder how much this stuff fetched there.
I love how simple this computer is. Usually when we use computers we don't know what commands it is running,
but when you use this computer you exactly know what command it is executing which I find awesome.
IF TODAY'S COMPUTERS SHOWS US ITS COMMANDS. THEN, WE CAN'T SEE THE SCREEN, IT'LL BE FULL OF COMMAND LINES...
This is awesome! We use computers millions time more advanced today but still I have no fucking clue how people could have created this out of nothing, it's really fascinating.
wow red the tech sheets for the chips , and he just built it . now we use computers to design computers
"Nothing"? Well, he didn't make the chips.
It's really never out of nothing, but still.
Not out of nothing, the MOS technology 6502 is the central piece of engineering here, not that the bus, video system, tape loader and basic interpreter are trivial (the woz did all that by himself) but the star here is cheap, off shelf microprocessors.
and the other question... how did they used them??
It is amazing how such a known brand started like this
This could serve as a direct competitor to windows 8.
Why? This one actually functions.
Apple fanboys are all the same
Yeah. Makes you wonder, huh?
Hahahaha, really cracked me up there.
I think it out does windows 8 and 10
The keyboard does sound awesome, like a typewriter.
+Simon Bremner You can buy new mechanical keyboards. I'm using one now called 'Das Keyboard'. Even the old IBM mechanical keyboards are still collectors items apparently.
That is mostly plastic banging against plastic. You get the same sound from a C64 or Amiga.
@@rollerboogie Model M. Totally different sound. That was the switch clicking and not plastic bsnging against plastic.
To be honest, a mechanical keyboard might not be the answer, it's expensive in contrast to a good standard keyboard. My keyboard is a very cheap 'DELL' standard keyboard and it really feels good in tactile and sound. In sound you really wouldn't tell the difference between mine (a rubber contact solution) and a mechanical keyboard. If you want a late 90's feel i suggest my keyboard would do just fine. I'll just check what my keyboard is called, wait a minute.... it's called sk-8115.. It is a really a cheap keyboard (Litterally i bought it for 3 dollars used, and it looked brand new when i got it). the keys on the keyboard are sticking out on the board, so you really can grab them with your fingers and wiggle them around, in contrast to laptop keyboard haha. I can always feel with the keys with my fingers where i am on this keyboard. It really feels nice when you use your keyboard a whole lot, like me, i'm a programmer so i write a lot (-:
LOL :D anyways, you guys who are reading this, what i'm really trying to say is that the keyboard you use is important :) But you really don't have to spend all that much for a keyboard you want to try out, before you try out a expensive mechanical keyboard.
That Dell keyboard is actually a pretty nice keyboard for being a cheap OEM one, but a good mechanical keyboard will still blow it out of the water.
Those sounds of keyboard clicks..
Odd techDrug Yes, sound is really cool... Аnd the computer as a whole
Better than a typewriter
Mechanical keyboards are the best for typing.
And the feeling we get by looking at this machine.
*insert homer simpson drooling*
The music in this video is absolutely gorgeous!
Love u for this! Thanks for sharing this
5:06 Grafics.. WAIT *GRAFICS*??
+skil3z ASCII art, graphics made with keyboard symbols. I love it :)
Jesus Torres Its spelled incorrectly on the cassette
appears to ascii graphics lol
+skil3z I don't think that's his point lol, it's the fact that it could do graphics at all lol
My point is that it's a typo on an Apple product
very good presentation of this historical micro.
This is sooooooooooo AWESOME!!!!! Love it so much!!!
This is simply awesome. Great video.
Wooow that's absolutely a masterpiece of microprocessors 💜
Oh my gosh,this is awesome
Never seen one working before so glad I watched this
Awesome ! Love computers but never had one till April 12th 08 but love them !
I like how video gets cut without showing thumbs up for Steve Jobs.
What demo-ed at 4:25 changed the world forever: BASIC interpreter. Woz you magnificent bastard!
Awesome....heard about Apple-1 but did not know what it could do and how...thanks for sharing.
I kind of wish I was in college back in the 70's instead of now. Must have been awesome learning about such great tech during that time.
Crazy stuff, Woz and Steve...
Reading steve jobs biography and then watching this and knowing the story behind it is so awesome
Those years when you couldnt believe some day computers would have 128Gb RAM, 4Tb Hard Drive, 3D printer, and 4K monitor... :)
Hermosa obra de la ingeniería electrónica. Me fascina tan sólo el hecho inteligente de crear "de la nada" un sistema, un chip, que te permita escribir en una pantalla, y todo lo que envuelve la creación de éstos.
Great video and demo Apple I computer!
beautiful piece of art
Nice video !!! I love computers have had one since April 12th 2008 !!!
The most mechanic keyboard of the world, pure gold!
i like watching all these old computers. Imagine how far we have come and we still haven't even build a spaceship yet. I can't wait!
Thanks woz 😀
Fantastico!! Non credevo che esistessero ancora! Chi sà quanto vale; come prodotto di antiquariato!
all thanks to Great Woz, a true GENIUS, above all a great person
Awesome!
Mr. Wozniak should be the Best Man in the world.
The Oldenburger Computermuseum became a fully working replica of the Apple 1. Can`t wait to see it on sauturday the 17th of november 2018 :) I`m a member of the museum ;)
The best Apple thing of ever.
This computer opened new ways...
Programmable, able to display a photo from cassette. Its a magic machine!
I would have a hearth attack adding power to that! :D
its amazing.!! the first graphics on apple computer. this is a one million dollar machine.
Something older then this got us to the moon and back a few times???? I fucking doubt it
Museum. I wish to see that museum with a whole pc history
When electrical engineering and systems come together to build a computer legend.
WOW! It is a very beautiful machine.
Most wonderful mechanical keyboard i ever seen
I really really love the sound from Keyboard... Crick crick crick crickickick
Woz graphics, it's great !!!
My very first computer was a circuit board in a metal tray hooked up to the TV and the only peripherals were a keyboard and a tape recorder - pretty much just like this!
Which computer was it? Was it a kit?
"Hello world-
Programmed to work and not to feel-"
Wow... having hardware touched by the great Woz himself!!
That's one way to leave a message
-woz
this is just awesome
i want the 8-bit guy reviewing this. 🤣 but good job in showing this machine thanks!!!!
It would be nice if you were explaining whats happening.
Probably does not speak english
Looks to me like he is running a BASIC program.
The big question for me, he would show the things along the video like be did, but would show better the screen to let us understand what and how he is doing
I'm speechless..
Excellent!
6:14 Woz!
Wow
The image at the end of Woz was awesome
è bellissimo vederlo in funzione!!
Best demo by a MIME ever! :)
.
Great video... I am totally gonna build one. So simple, so amazing. Everyone see "Steve Jobs Lost Interview" on NetFlix and watch this video again.
Great & Beautiful
its scary to see this and then realise where we are now.... creepy and amazing the same time...
I miss those old computers for the os on eproms, Apple, C-64,TRS-80... instant on.
Great video.
So can the Apple 1 address individual pixels, or like in this video just use text characters when it comes to "graphics"?
OMG. i love it.
This is truly the best computer in the world.
´This is really awesome! See the history!
Great video, thanx for sharing! I was wondering: How did they do those ascii-art images back then? I mean, digicams, webcams and scanners were not around for another 10 to 20 years, right?! So they entered every single character by hand and looked at it and changed it again and spent like 10 hours to create those images??
Basically, yes. Although it's possible that those images were created using a modern ASCII art generator and then converted to work on the Apple I.
Best 1st piece of tech ever invented
que hermoso, derramé una lágrima al final jaja
it was a university project and most work was done by Wozniak..not jobs.
For me:
Woz = Creator
Jobs = Seller
@@Leon-wg5ke Yes...Jobs was a businessman. A corporate genius and knew how to sell.
@@ubirash No. Jobs wasn't a genius.
woźniak był Polakiem
Крутяк, работать на компьютере на маш кодах это высший пилотаж!
One of these were just auctioned for $905k!
Cool history. Rip Steve
Just like when i learned assembly X86 :')
あっちゃんに紹介されて来ました👍
simplemente una maravilla!
Amazing
Anyone here 2021 (i will check the comment 3 years after)
Fei Bowen bet
I will remind you
nope
İf you don't die
Message from 2018 to the kids of 2021 - how to be happy:
1: eat pizza
2: sleep
3: code
4: goto 1
Today is the Apple 1’s 44th Anniversary
Awesome 😲
pls teach us how to make this computer
Imagine that!! A company that started in 1975 in Steve Jobs' parents' garage!!! I was a teenager back then, and will *NEVER* forget what the two Steves did with the results of their combined brainpower!!!
Actually it was just Steve Wozniak. Jobs barely knew how to assemble a circuit board. He was a genius at marketing though.
@@wolfgangvan-uber6515 No. Jobs was not a genius.
Leonhard Euler Then explain how he single handedly saved Apple from bankruptcy (which it was just weeks away from) and made it into one of the most profitable and valuable tech companies in the world?
@@wolfgangvan-uber6515 He got lotsa money from Microsoft. Without Bill Gates Apple would not exist anymore. Jobs was a remarkable salesman though. But not a genius.
Leonhard Euler Remarkable, or a genius. That’s all pretty much just hair splitting. You can‘t just be remarkable if you’re a normal businessman with mediocre ideas, like Apple‘s former CEO‘s for example. So you’re basically saying the same thing. Glad we both agree :-)
Is the cassette recorder defective because it plays no sound when loading programs?
Or are they afraid of illegal recordings of copyrighted software ;-)
ext time Apple comes up with new macbook pro, they should have a WOZ edition, with his signature of course.
What command you typed to load the BASIC?
Oh god were did you get that it’s. Really collectible!
6:14 That is awesome
Grateful
Hi. I'm Alex from Argentina. I have one Apple II. When i power on the apple i can see the same screen whit a lot off question logo ????? Is normal? Thanks.
Awesome... 😭
Respect for the Wozniak 😎
awesome
Pretty neat.
It's so cool👌👌👌
I can remember when I named my first personal computer Apple with my signature bite in 1973 .I found to leave a signature from John Deer in Dixon ill
Nice!
Wait, there were only ninety of these. You lucky son of a gun!
