A recycling center in Silicon Valley, US, is looking for an unknown woman who disposed of a unique specimen there: Of one of the first Apple personal computers worth $200,000.
The woman stumbled upon the computer while cleaning the house after her husband’s death and passed several boxes of electronic devices to the CleanBayArea recycling center in Milpitas, California.
