		</div><p>An authenticated Apple-1 Computer prototype from the mid-1970s has sold at auction for nearly $700,000 (€697,000).</p>
<p>The prototype was used by Apple co-founder Steve Jobs in 1976 to demonstrate the Apple-1 to Paul Terrell, owner of The Byte Shop in Mountain View, California – one of the first personal computer stores in the world, Boston-based RR Auction said in a statement.</p>
<p>A Bay Area collector, who wishes to remain anonymous, made the winning $677,196 bid on Thursday, the auctioneer said.</p>
<p>“There is no Apple-1 without this board — it’s the holy grail of Steve Jobs and Apple memorabilia,” said Bobby Livingston, RR’s executive vice president.</p>
<p>The board has been matched to Polaroid photographs taken by Terrell in 1976, showing the prototype in use.</p>
<p>It was also examined and authenticated by Apple-1 expert Corey Cohen, whose notarised 13-page report accompanied the sale.</p>
<p>The prototype resided on the Apple Garage property for many years before being given by Mr Jobs to the seller about 30 years ago.</p>
