This was sold by the same guy that had the Apple-1 for sale (which he
pulled today with no bids).
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=5790352907
Off the scale as far as price goes (maybe $500 on the high end, $1,081 is
excessive), but the listing has good photos showing what an early Apple ][
motherboard looks like, including the breadboarding area at the front.
Does anyone know what the run count was on these first revision
motherboards?

Wow, first thing I notice is that it has 8 slots instead of seven!

Ooops, now that I look at my board again, I see that the 8th slot on the
ebay board is probably just the aux. connector! It still has lots more
chips than my board though!

The Apple ][ and ][+ bth had 8 slots. Slot 0 was for memory or ROM cards.
What Apple ][ model are you referring to? The ][ and ][+ motherboards
both had lots of chips and the design didn't change that much between
them. The //e and later boards were drastically different.

I'm refering to the //e. I tend to forget that the //e wasn't first in
the Apple // series.

It's a shame to see that poor board 'held prisoner' in a wooden frame
case. How's any voltage going to get to it so it can 'live?'
