Apple Computer Company
04/01/1976 AD founded
Apple Computer Company was founded as a business partnership, based in in Jobs' parents' home on Crist Drive in Los Altos, California. Although it is widely believed that the company was founded in the house's garage, Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak called it "a bit of a myth".
Jobs and Wozniak did, however, move some operations to the garage when the bedroom became too crowded.
The company's first product was the Apple I, a computer designed and hand-built entirely by Wozniak To finance its creation, Jobs sold his only motorized means of transportation, a VW Bus, for a few hundred dollars, and Wozniak sold his HP-65 calculator for US$500 (equivalent to $2,381 in 2021).
