Description

Original Apple Macintosh 128K computer from 1984, Model No. M0001, FCC ID BCG9GRM0001, and Serial Number F44753NM0001, the latter of which indicates that this Macintosh was the 5904th manufactured during the 47th week of 1984 in Fremont, California. The computer’s 128 KB RAM has been updated to 512K. Includes its original Picasso logo box with styrofoam packing material, power cable (with sleeve), Macintosh Mouse (M0100), Macintosh Keyboard (M0110), and its original plastic accessory case, which contains two floppy disks, ‘A Guided Tour of Macintosh’ cassette tape, two manuals, a brochure, and four rare unused Apple Computer rainbow logo decals. Accompanied by an attractive Apple Computer canvas carrying bag for the Macintosh 128K, and the original shipping box for the 512K logicboard, which contains the computer’s original 128K hardware. In fine cosmetic condition; the computer boots up but the disc drive is not reading. The Picasso box bears varying degrees of wear, but is overall in very good to fine condition.

The Macintosh 128K was the first in the line of Apple's Macintosh computers. It offered a radically new approach that featured a graphical user interface (GUI), built-in screen, and mouse-all of which revolutionized the user's experience, marking the transition from command-line computing to a point-and-click model. The Macintosh was famously announced in one of the most-viewed Super Bowl advertisements of all time, '1984.'
