I attended the First West Coast Computer Faire in San Francisco in 1977.  Apple announced its radical innovation - the Apple II, which had an integrated case, basic in ROM, etc.  I flew up later to meet with Mike, and toyed with the idea of coming to work with them as employee number 13.  But, I looked at housing prices and thought that $68,000 for a 4 bedroom house in Los Gatos was simply out of the question.

Here are some photos from way back when:
