              Vintage Apple Computer Sells for More than $670,000

   A vintage Apple computer has sold for more than $670,000 at an auction
   in Germany.
   The Apple-1 computer sold Saturday was assembled by Apple founders
   Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak in 1976.
   Bob Luther, author of the book, "The First Apple," said the computer is
   a rare collectable.
   "Well, the Apple 1, there where only 200 built and they came out of the
   garage of Steve Jobs. And then Apple had a trading programme, because
   they wanted to bring them back, so they destroyed a lot of trade ins.
   So, it was about 46 of them today. So, it`s really the holy grail of
   collectable technology."
   The German auctioneer says the buyer who purchased the computer for
   $671,400 is from the "Far East" and wishes to remain anonymous.
