The famous eye-catching $666 price tag of the Apple 1 was a pure marketing genius at the time, and the Apple 1 success set the tone for Apple's future success as a company. The Apple 1 personal computer was launched to market by Steve Jobs and fellow founder Steve Wozniak in 1976 and it was no doubt the most Hi-Tech computer of its time as it could be fitted with 8 kilobytes of memory. Not only the Apple 1 was one of the first machines to have a keyboard connector, but it was far smaller than competing computers plus the Apple 1 could be plugged into a regular home television.

On a last note on computers, wouldn't you agree that learning a programming language greatly develops logical reasoning skills? Imagine how advanced and how many more geniuses we could have if children weren't only taught HTML and Microsoft Word courses!
