To fulfill the $25,000 order, they obtained $20,000 in parts at 30 days net and delivered the finished product in 10 days. Very soon after, Steve Jobs arranged to sell "something like 50" completely-built computers to the Byte Shop (a computer store in Mountain View, California) at $500 each. To fund this small venture-their first company-Jobs sold his van and Wozniak sold his HP-65 calculator. Wozniak calculated that having the board design laid out would cost $1,000 and manufacturing would cost another $20 per board he hoped to recoup his costs if 50 people bought the boards for $40 each. Then, Steve Jobs suggested that they design and sell a single etched and silkscreened circuit board-just the bare board, with no electronic parts-that people could use to build the computers.
After building it for himself and showing it at the club, he and Steve Jobs gave out schematics (technical designs) for the computer to interested club members and even helped some of them build and test out copies. He was so inspired that he immediately set to work on what would eventually become the Apple I computer. On March 5, 1975, Steve Wozniak attended the first meeting of the Homebrew Computer Club in Gordon French's garage.
Introductory advertisement for the Apple I computer Production was discontinued on September 30, 1977, after the Jintroduction of its successor, the Apple II, which Byte magazine referred to as part of the "1977 Trinity" of personal computing (along with the PET 2001 from Commodore Business Machines and the TRS-80 Model I from Tandy Corporation). Wozniak demonstrated the first prototype in July 1976 at the Homebrew Computer Club in Palo Alto, California. The Apple I was Apple's first product, and to finance its creation, Jobs sold his only motorized means of transportation, a VW Microbus, for a few hundred dollars (Wozniak later said that Jobs planned instead to use his bicycle to get around), and Wozniak sold his HP-65 calculator for $500. The idea of selling the computer came from Wozniak's friend and co-founder Steve Jobs. The Apple Computer 1, originally released as the Apple Computer and known later as the Apple I, or Apple-1, is a desktop computer released by the Apple Computer Company (now Apple Inc.) in 1976.
