How do they know it's the only one?
They don't. But in the 29 years since they were made, there's no indication
that a complete unit has ever turned up for sale before, nor anyone
publicly stating that they have one. It's unclear how many of these were
made, but probably not too many, and of the few that ever left Apple's
hands, most were probably returned to Apple and either modified to use the
3.5-inch drive, or destroyed.
It is certainly far more rare than an Apple 1. If there are any others left
out there, they're well-hidden.
