| Why the Apple II manual is selling for $800,000 |
Apple was founded in 1976 and has been providing products and services to newer technologies and devices ever since. Perhaps one of the most important names associated with the company is Steve Jobs, who contributed to the company's many innovations.
The instruction manual for the Apple II was recently auctioned. This is a user guide on plain paper that is 196 pages long due to some old stains on the cover.
This guide is expensive, mainly because one of the pages contains a handwritten note signed by Steve Jobs.
Apple II User Guide
The note was so valuable in this pamphlet, Steve Jobs wrote, “Julian, your generation is the first to grow up with the PC. Change the world now. Steve Jobs. 1980.” In addition to signing Steve Jobs, the same memorandum was also signed by the first investor of Apple and its second CEO, Mike Markkola (Mike Markula).
The book sold for $787,484 at RR Auction, based in Boston, USA!
The auction was won by Jim Irsai, owner of Indianapolis Colts. Irsay will add this auction to their private collection.

“When we think about the most important and creative talents of the past few years, Steve Jobs will definitely be on the list,” Ilsay said. Ersay generally praised Steve Jobs in his speech. He also praised his influence in the field of technology.
On the other hand, the auction house RR Auction announced on its official website that Apple experienced significant growth in the stock market in the same year that it signed the user guide.
The auction house produced more than one evidence to confirm the authenticity and authenticity of the written note. It was after people expected the Jobs Representative to write this memo. It's with Julian Brewer's confirmation letter. His name appears in the giveaway content.
So when Julian Brewer received this gift, he was still a teenager. At this point, Jobs rarely signed or wrote a dedication. It adds more value for this.
Apple II is a personal computer designed by Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak and released in 1977. It is one of the most popular personal computers of all time.
Most of the device copies are gone. However, to this day, copies of it are still employed in Russian museums. Perhaps the museum administration could consider putting the devices up for auction after the evidence has been sold in such large quantities.
