It is not all scrap is thrown. It discovered a recycling center in Silicon Valley in the US, where a woman filed an old computer that would be thrown away. But the computer turned out to be worth the entire 200,000 dollars, corresponding to 1.7 million.
It was in a box of discarded electronics as the woman cleaned out from his garage when her husband died. She did not leave contact information and the find was made only a few weeks after her visit. Recycling center is now trying to get in touch with her.
The computer is one of about 200 copies of an early model that was put together by the Apple founders Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne, dating from 1976.
– We could not believe our eyes. We thought it was a copy, says Victor Gichun at the recycling center, which sold the computer to a private collector.
Gichun remember how the woman looks and asks her to come and get a check for half the amount.
