A rare fully-functional Apple-1 Computer has sold for $458,711 when it went under the hammer at an auction in Boston this week.

Alongside the pioneering product, the auction also saw the sale of the lifetime collection of Apple product design engineer Jerry Manock. The collection features a Macintosh PowerBook signed by Steve Jobs which sold for $12,671 (£10,284) and a neon Apple logo that went for $1,915 (£1,554). Meanwhile, a'think different' watch from the brand's famous ad campaign sold for $1,375 (£1,116).
