January 2018 will mark the 34th Anniversary of the launch of this original Macintosh M0001 128K model. The original Mac was introduced with the famous Orwellian '1984' commercial during the Super Bowl on January 22, 1984, and was the very first reasonably affordable personal computer to use a mouse and a Graphical User Interface (GUI) with desktop icons.
This Macintosh is week 9 of 1984 production as decoded from the serial # label on the Mac that begins withF409 (F= Fremont, CA production plant, 4= 1984, 9= 9th week of year) indicating this Mac was produced during the last week of February 1984, only a few weeks after the Mac was first introduced and launched in late January! Original 'Macintosh' emblem on rear (very late 1984 productionM0001 Macs wore a revised 'Macintosh 128k' emblem starting during week 47 of production,all Macs made before then had this original "Macintosh" emblem). Steve Jobs and the original Macintosh team signatures are molded inside the rear case housing.Rare non-upgraded Macintosh M0001 with original 128K RAM motherboard with early Mac Version A ROM set, and original 400K capacity Sony single-sided disk drive inside. Upgrades of 128K Macs to 512K RAM or higher motherboards and higher capacity disk drives were very common once upgrades became available, however upgrades were often not noted on the outer Mac case. Therefore, a Macintosh can still have the original case labels/emblems but that does not guarantee it still has the original components inside, unless it has been verified like this one. When a Mac was upgraded by Apple the original 128K board was removed and swapped out for a completely new 512K board, so the original motherboard was lost forever. Original Macs like this that still have the orginal non-modified 128K motherboard and 400K disk drive as it came from Apple in 1984 are much more collectible and valuable now than upgraded Macs.
Macintosh system unit- (Model M0001)- Original beige/cream color, not all darkly yellowed, marked up or damaged like many are now. No marker writing, no stickers or old sticker outlines, no cracks or missing parts, only some minor imperfections expected for a 30+ year old computer, hard to find now in this clean cosmetic condition. Small engraving of letters and numbers on the rear case under the Macintosh emblem hard to see in photos. NO corrosion to rear clock battery compartment unlike many that had an old battery left in for years that leaked out causing internal damage.NO ugly pry marks to any of the case seams as this one was never opened improperly with the wrong tools like many were, which greatly detracts from appearance and value. This Mac was never upgraded so likely never opened before now. Screen is bright, crisp, and stable with no burned-in image, or scratches on the glass. All four original rubber feet on bottom of case and clean. Inside of Mac case is exceptionally clean, no corrosion, no dirt or dust, properly stored.Original Sony 400K Single-Sided Internal Disk Drive- Early 1984 production. Disk insert and eject mechanism cleaned and re-lubed so disks go in and out smoothly like new again. Drive read/write head cleaned and tested. Included disksload, run, and eject as expected. Original Macs are completely dependent on the floppy drive, as there is no hard drive, so having a properly serviced and tested floppy disk drive is essential for reliable use.

Mac mice and keyboards were made at a different production plant than Macs, then were later paired with a Mac for final packaging and shipment, so will always be from right around the same timeframe of production as the Mac if they are the originals that came with the Mac, not from a much earlier or much later week of production than the Mac. This is a matching original set as it came from Apple in early 1984.Original Picasso Mac Accessory Kit- Rare original Mac plastic Picasso Accessory Kit, mostly still white has some spots of discoloration to the plastic and some cracks to the bottom half , not darkly yellowed all over like many are now.
