Apple I, Macintosh and a Wozniak blue box together

1976

A museum case placing a blue box beside the Apple I and the Macintosh. Wozniak has said repeatedly that without the blue box there would have been no Apple: the pair's first product was an illegal one. It is the clearest single image of the line from phreaking to personal computing. The subject dates from 1976; the photograph itself is later.
