'Burr / Computerland' Apple-1 computer
John Christopher Burr / Computerland Apple-1 is listed in the Apple-1 Registry as #90.
History of the John Christopher Burr / Computerland Apple-1
John Christopher Burr bought it together with another Apple-1 from someone in California. Until 2019 it was owned by a Computerland owner. It is an original and working Apple-1 from 2nd production run (2nd batch).
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, the unit did not arrive in Germany until November 2020.
It is an Apple-1 including the original Apple Cassette Interface.
The pictures show the Apple-1 without ICs. The computer is undergoing restoration, but I currently do not have time to complete it.
Some history: It was bought together with another Apple-1 from someone in California by John Christopher Burr. He owned a Computerland shop. He had the Apple-1 in a show case in his Computerland shop with a price tag of US$ 1,000,000. Steve Jobs reportedly told him that he should keep it because it would be worth a lot of money someday.
The acquisition
It was offered in a private deal to me in 2019.
