This news is about a computer. It is the Apple-1. Steve Jobs created it in 1976. He sold it for 600 dollars. He sold it in his parent’s garage. His parent’s house was in California.

The computer was not very powerful. However, it still was very important. It was the first personal computer. Charles Ricketts was the first owner of the computer. It is sometimes called the Ricketts Apple-1.

The old computer is for sale now. It is very expensive. Its price is more than 0.5 million dollars.

Difficult words: sold (past of sell – to give something for money), powerful (“strong”; able to do many things), owner (person who has something).
