16 St. 33 Min, 7 Mai 1976 Jahr - Apple I

Beschreibung:

The Apple I was the very first computer made by The Apple Computer Company (now Apple Inc.) . through the development efforts of Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs, and Ron Wayne, Apple I was developed, not in a garage, but in the bedroom of Steve Wozniak's home on 11161 Crist Drive in Los Altos (the house number was later changed to 2066) . Woz built the Apple I to run BASIC, so games could be programmed and played on it. It was a game machine for the most part.he thought the binary switches of the Altair 8800 and similar PCs were not user friendly enough so he wrote a BASIC language assembler into the ROM by hand using only hex. Then on May 1976 the trio sold their first fifty computers for $500 each.
