What was the first Apple computer called?

The Apple Computer

The original Apple Computer (later known as the Apple-1) went on sale in July 1976 for $666.66 (or about $3,500 in today’s dollars). The product was simply a motherboard, without a monitor, keyboard, or power source. The first unit was used in a high school math class. About 200 units were produced in total, and all but 25 were sold within the first nine or ten months (Wikipedia.org).

Apple Lisa

The Apple Lisa was released in 1983. It was the fourth computer released by Apple, following the Apple 1, 2, and 3. It cost $9,995 in 1983, which is roughly equivalent to $30,000 today. It is considered a commercial failure, as only 10,000 units were ever sold in its two years on the market (Wikipedia.org).

Apple Macintosh

The original Apple Macintosh computer was released in 1984 and sold for $2,495 (equivalent to about $7,000 in today’s dollars. It went on sale two days after Apple’s now-famous “1984” ad aired during Super Bowl XVIII (Wikimedia.org).

Apple Newton

The Newton was a personal digital assistant (PDA) released by Apple Computers in 1993. It sold for $900, or about $1,800 today (Arstechnica.com). The device’s high price tag and early problems with its handwriting recognition feature limited its sales. Steve Jobs killed the product a year after his return to Apple in 1998 (Wikipedia.org).
