## Caption

In April 1976, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak launched the first Apple computer, marking the beginning of what would become a technology powerhouse. At age 21, Jobs sold his Volkswagen bus for $1,500, while Wozniak sold his Hewlett-Packard calculator for $500. Together, the sales provided the funds for their initial venture​​.

With this capital, Jobs and Wozniak embarked on producing the Apple I, introduced on April Fools Day in 1976. Their innovative approach soon paid off. A local computer dealer placed a substantial order for 100 units for $50,000, a significant milestone for the fledgling company.
