I'm not familiar with any apple 1 story but I remember him posting and
calling in to a night time radio show. I didn't follow everything so I
coulda missed something or maybe it was a different Titor claimee.
Maybe he'd be one of the folks who brings one? :-)
I have publicly offered:
If John Titor will give me a ONE WAY ride to 1960, I will get him his
5100, with both BASIC AND APL, and make some investments to fund his
entire project. The investments will include only a few Apple 1
computers, because they will need to be discreet and low profile, although
it would be very tempting to make a few "adjustments" to history.
If the ride is ROUND-TRIP, then all he gets is a good look at a 5100.
I'll take the long way back.
