German auction house
Team Breker sold a rare, fully-functional Apple I computer at its November 24 auction for $640,000 -- an amount that smashes the previous record for an Apple I sale of $374,500 set by Sotheby's this last June. The last Apple I item available was an attempt at selling a nonfunctional motherboard for Apple's first offering, but bids didn't meet the £50,000 ($80,555) reserve price.
