What the icons meant?
This computer never become available in Spain, it was only available in the USA, and only 1.500 units were made, actually only 200 outlast in the world, basically because when Apple launch the Apple II make a offer to his customers of two Apple 1 for one new Apple II and later Apple destroyed the motherboards; it´s practically impossible to find one in trade today, in the last Apple 1 put up for public auction the biggest bidder pay 50000 US$ for one of this. The computer were sold mounted in a wood case with a keyboard, just like in the upper photography, but Apple only sell the main board, the rest of the computer, case, keyboard, power supply, etc., were mounted by the users or the computers shops.
You may notice that the company logo it wasn´t the bit apple, it was a Newton draw under a famous tree, you can see it in the upper photography in the beginning of this page.
The originally USA price, 666,66$, it wasn´t nothing satanic or diabolic, Steve Wozniak said, it was only a casuality. :-)
