Apple I was Steven Wozniak's first contribution to the personal computer
field. It was designed over a period of years, and was only built in printed
circuit-board form when Steve Jobs insisted it could be sold. It debuted
in April 1976 at the Homebrew Computer Club in Palo Alto, but few took
it seriously. The Apple I was based on the MOStek 6502 chip, whereas most
other "kit" computers were built from the Intel 8080. The Apple
I was sold through several small retailers, and included only the circuit
board. A tape-interface was sold separately, but you had to build the
case. The Apple I's initial cost was $666.66.
