The nickname of this Apple-1 was changed to Cooper because no earlier owner is known by name.
This Apple-1 was owned by Cameron Cooper, who also owned #48.
It was restored to operational condition and auctioned at Sotheby's for US$ 374,500 on June 15, 2012.
The buyer was from South Korea. This Apple-1 is now on display at the Nexon Computer Museum.
