Signed Macintosh 6.0 floppy disk goes for over $11,000
DOES STEVE JOBS’ SIGNED FLOPPY EXCITE YOU?
A 1MB floppy disk is about as useful as wired headphones these days, so it was a little surprising to see one up for auction with bids over US$11,000 in December of 2019. This unusually expensive technology relic features a working copy of Macintosh System Tools Version 6.0 and a squiggle from the tech messiah himself: Steve Jobs. We can just imagine the black skivvy army swooning over this ‘surprisingly affordable’ and rare instance of signed Apple memorabilia from the company’s heyday… i.e. sometime before it ditched the headphone jack. So far, 15 people have put their money up to get a hold of Steve Jobs’ floppy.
