(Dagbladet): A woman who owned an Apple 1 computer – the first edition of the motherboard to it eventually so iconic company – had no idea what treasure she put on when she delivered the rare specimen for recycling.
A woman in the 60s in California emptied namely the garage after her husband had died.
A number of electronic items were left at recycling company CleanBayArea in April when the woman decided to clean out the garage, the company said on its website.
Sale for 1, 5000000
Neither she nor the staff at recycling company ante what the woman left in cardboard boxes, and she left off without giving any contact details.
When an employee a few weeks later opened one of the boxes revealed Apple 1 computers themselves.
The company sold since it submitted the motherboard for over 1.5 million (200 $ 000 ) on a private auction.
Recycling firm has an agreement to split the profits 50/50 with the person who has filed the object, and consequently is searching for the woman who supplies machinery anonymously.
– Help us find this woman, so she can get the check that awaits her, the company said on its website.
Rarely care
Around two hundred models of Apple-1 computer was built in his time.
Apple-1 was no immediate success for the young Apple founders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, and they did not sell the machines themselves. It was only when Paul Terell, owner of one of the world’s first data center – The Byte Shop – ordered 50 copies and sold them for $ 666.66 in 1976 dollars (about 20,000 Norwegian kroner today), sales began to take off.
First, around 50 copies built by Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak in the late Steve Jobs’ garage. One of those copies were sold at an auction last fall for 5.9 million.
It is believed that there are more than a dozen of the original Apple your computer that still exist.
The woman thought was garbage, proved to be a PC-tax.
A recycling company in San Jose in California got in early April in a variety of boxes with old Autoelectronics as an older woman would throw after her husband died. But a closer look at the seemingly outdated equipment revealed that there was not anything that was in the boxes, type San Jose Mercury News.
In one of the boxes lay a Apple-1, the first PC one Apple founders Steve Jobs, Steve Woziak and Ron Wayne created in 1976. It will exist only around 200 of these in the world.

Sold collects
The historic machine was sold in May for $ 200,000 – over half a million Norwegian kroner – to a private collector. Now recycling firm Clean Bay Area, in line with their own policies, give half the money to the woman who supplied the machine.

– Now we try to find out who she is to give her $ 100,000, says the company’s second chief Victor Gichun San Jose Mercury News.
The woman gave no name and would rather not have any receipt, making pursuit of her challenging.
– She just said that she would get rid of a few things and get cleaned up in the garage, said Gichun.
Finally, we know: How Apple Watch “
Remember the woman
The woman had said that her husband had passed away a few months earlier. This must have made an impression on Gichun, saying that the woman did not have to do anything other than to show up to get the money.
– I remember her. If I see her, I know it’s her, he said to the local newspaper.
The computer should at auction and is expected to fetch $ 200,000, about a half million dollars, writes the Washington Post.
“Apple 1 “called machine that Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ron Wayne built 200 pieces in 1976.
There was an unknown woman who in April delivered two boxes of assorted electronics to a company in Silicon Valley that specializes in reclaiming including computers.
The woman told Victor Gichun, deputy director of Clean Bay Area, that she had cleaned up after her late husband.
– I asked if she need a receipt, but she said she did not need anything, tell Gichun Mercury News.
Now after he lit the woman and says she just needs to get to the firm’s premises and show off for him to get a check for $ 100,000.
[broom.no] In recent years, the so-called infotainment systems in cars become increasingly better and more sophisticated.
which in many cases started with a small display for radio, has now become a controller (or monitor) for a range of vehicle functions. Many new cars are now connected to the internet. And probably we have only seen the beginning of this.
When companies like Apple and Google throws himself into the dance, it means new markets and opportunities are opening up.
The two have each developed system of information and entertainment in the car. Apple’s system is called CarPlay, while Google is behind Android Auto.
Simply put, going mobile can be integrated with the car’s infotainment and controlled via switches and levers in the car.
When new equipment is launched for passenger cars, it is usually the premium brands which are the first. So it is not this time. Hyundai Sonata is the very first car model out with Android Auto.
In a press release says Hyundai that the new system will ensure that the driver can access their smartphone via the vehicle display and other integrated features such as Bluetooth and voice recognition. Apps, such b. Excl. navigation, music, travel information, etc. are updated automatically.
By phone technology becomes more accessible, the system can also contribute to improved road safety. Android Auto allows the driver to keep his eyes and attention on the road, rather than on the smartphone which is otherwise locked while driving.
Hyundai Sonata with Android Auto is the first of several Hyundai models with this integration. Hyundai says no when this integration will be available in the rest of the world. (ANB)
We’ve test driven the new operating system Android M and Google Photos. You have a lot to look forward to.
Android has become common for the longest time. Google’s operating system for mobile phones has a solid lead, and last night Norwegian time, was operating again. Or, some news anyway. Developer Conference Google I / O showed namely Google Android forward M, the little mysterious sequel to Android 5.x Lollipop like many of today’s phones use.
This update is primarily intended to act to raise the overall user experience in Android.
Android M are not many hours old but Tek.no have already installed it on a Google Nexus 5 phone and tried the new OS. Here are first impressions.
You got? New top mobile from Sony
What should confection called?
Google has a habit of calling up new versions of Android for sweets – the current version is called, for example, “Lollipop” while version before that was named “KitKat”.
Currently, called the newly launched version thus only M, because the letter comes after L in the alphabet. Probably not because someone at Google is extremely happy in James Bond films. Name Speculation has gone in some online forums recently, and both Marshmallow and Muffin has been suggested that name. Google Android developers is extremely fond of sweets.
WINDOW: Android M trend continues and informs well in all of bows and edges. We like the many short explanation windows we get up everywhere. Especially for some of the more infløkte functions such priority contacts.

Among the news we can mention that you now will be able to change the permissions you give to apps after installing them. Google has also worked part to improve battery life in that it analyzes how you use your phone and avoid synchronize less essential services that you probably do not need right now. There has also been an improved volume control that lets you select different volumes on various services and notifications.
New Solution: 75 savings banks launching mobile payment >
Another novelty in the Android M’s ability to integrate the browser Chrome in other apps. Thus, a developer can choose to open a Chrome tab with designs from their own app on your phone.
With the new app Google Photos, Google will also give you unlimited storage of up to 16 megapixel images in ” cloud “- absolutely free.

Future Android phones will also come with the new USB Type C connector Apple has introduced in its latest MacBook. With it you can connect two phones with a USB cable to transfer files.
Super search function in fotoappen
As for Android M seems that not everything Google showed off the stage is available in Google Photos app. Pinch zoom to switch between Day view, Week view, and Year views did not seem to work, but it can also be signed that simply did wrong.
However, what worked and worked vengeance, they were new search functions. Google Photos can not just rely recognize the persons depicted, but also understand what the pictures contain. During the launch attempts were made to search the snowstorm in Toronto, and the app picked up images of happy woodenheaded cars in Toronto’s suburban streets.
PHOTO: Google Photos is an extension of Google’s existing photo services. Now it has however been scary smart and can identify all possible cases and things in your photos.

In our own test found the app as good as anything we searched for within the basic categories such as animals, food, cars etc.
The new version can already be down, but we do note that there is talk of an early version – and you may risk that your phone becomes unstable or that certain things are no longer working properly.
In addition to the new Android version and new fotoapp, Google launched also a new payment service – Google Pay – which will compete with Apple Pay. The payment solution is a collaboration between Google and payment companies MasterCard, Visa, American Express and Discover, and will initially be available only in the US.

Silicon Valley (ITavisen:) Apple has full control development of MacBook, iPhone, App Store and iPad – well established products that sell in spades and that has made the company one of the world’s richest, regardless of market.
Follow ITavisen in Silicon Valley.
Apple is looking for its new iPhone But sooner or later sale of these products to stagnate. iPhone is already on the way there in the West. For this reason, Apple on aggressive courting of China where they could potentially tapping into hundreds of millions of Apple customers.
Still, the company will have to find the next big thing. The new product range which may one day be as lucrative as the iPhone.
The question I have often asked myself during test weeks with Apple Watch is whether I need it – the same question I received from everyone who saw us with it.
Everyone is very careful to say anything. They are simply not really sure if they need alert system. Many have not had a traditional bell at in many years, if not decades.
Is this just a product that is designed to give Apple more money, or is it healthy capitalist greed in combination with Jony Ive and Co. really believe that this time it makes your life better?
This is basically for our test of Apple’s first new product category for five years with Tim Cook as the supreme commander.
I ordered 42 mm. Stainless Steel model with black sport bracelet that many other Americans from Apple’s online store launch night. In early May, I received the product. Since then, the undersigned worn it from morning to evening.
I noticed quickly that I needed more time with this than other test products. It was initially difficult to define how it fit into our life.
Video produced by: Roger Pettersen, Espen Gjertz Øydvin and Thea Nærdal. Voice-over: Daniel Lange.
Design Apple Watch weighs a lot more than expected. It was the first thing that struck me when I wrapped it up from the (too large) box. However; It gives a feeling of quality Android bells I’ve tested is not near. No surprise in reason.
Apple’s products still radiates quality. Newest MacBook, and the clock, are two recent examples.
At the weigh slightly on the left arm link is unfamiliar, I’m not used to having a watch on his arm, but great it is.
Several times during test session I took it off us to squint at the details – not unlike the traditional bell-fanatics spends much of his spare time. This portends that Apple has learned a lot from them and are on the right path. The second generation is going to be much slimmer. There may be reason enough to wait a year.
I felt painfully self-conscious the first times I walk around with it, while I do not quite managed to not peek at it yourself.
I prefer watches with a circular face, but Apple designer not only for its appearance’s sake – they know that a square clock-face allows for much more information, and that it not be cut text. This in combination with the digital crown browsing interface and content, making sure your fingers do not block the small panel (42 mm. model is the obvious most popular, and I understand why. It is in fact smaller than you might imagine) .
It’s not that I do not like what I see when I look at it where it shines in pearly steel, but it’s not going to ignore that it is both fat and not just drool worthy as a mechanical wristwatch many classes of Casio G-Shock.
The face is black 90 percent of the time, but as with the iPhone 6 user Ive and his ingenious designers light around you to shape clock face thanks to the curved glass. Look at the watch from different angles; Light dances up and down along the edge, and krommer therein sapphire and steel meet. Delicious. It gives a new dimension to an androgynous design.
When it comes to clock face I want a wider selection. I chose to modify “Simple,” which Apple has christened it, to be yet easier – they dress at most.
The black sport armband quickly becomes very boring, but the other link I want costs $ 449. There are more than Apple Watch Sport ($ 399). I can not bring myself to pay $ 1,000 for an Apple Watch as it is now.
The biggest problem with the design is that it is too fat, which means that the long arm sweaters stop the clock. Swagger Basser will love that Apple Watch always seem, especially if they have acquired an early. I find it annoying.
The design is prettiest in the class and do little by themselves. Alessandro La Tona / ITavisen
user interface interface has been discussed a great deal, and it’s no wonder. The problem is that the discussion has often been negative, and not without good points I agree.
It takes time to understand how those who have made the interface plan, but after about a week it will feel natural. All for a long time. Many, the undersigned included, enough colored by spending iOS very much, and this does not work like an iPhone, yet.
And, this I can not forgive: If you get two notifications simultaneously on Facebook Messenger you can not read any of them, but will have to pull up the phone. Only the number of alerts listed. Hopeless.
Speaking of alerts retrieved the forward by pulling down from the top, app widgets (Apple calls it “glances”, but they most closely resemble mini-widgets) pulled up from the bottom.
All notices deleted by pressing a little harder than usual in the notification menu (this is reason to get excited “Force Touch” on iPhone), while a click on the digital crown recalls the app screen. Where do I use the least time.
Two clicks on the digital crown brings back the most recently used app. Hold the same button and Siri activates. Unfortunately, she is still not in Norwegian, and neither is she talking to you. For Americans it’s nice to dictate messages, and this works fine, but for Norwegians, this feature is therefore not yet in place.
That it created a dedicated button for your contacts are strange. This should rather have been back-to-home screen button, if it at all should have been part of the design.
I never used plug connectors because I anyway want to answer their phone. Hold this button you can turn off the clock, activate the power saver (which only gives a green and ugly digital clock) or lock it.
Apple Watch looks as good on the back. Alessandro La Tona / ITavisen
use The first days with Apple Watch was no a-ha experience.
Ok, so I can see what time it is – so what ..? It’s not just big innovation. Besides the the quite fat, and I can not find the apps I need to survive.
But eventually things fall into place. Not because it suddenly flooded with smart apps (developers have a great deal of work to do still), but because I suddenly one day wondering how mobile was.
To put it another way: I wondered not how mobile was before it had gone longer than normal. Why? Because I had the clock on me, and it had not warned me.
A dings on the bracelet is personal and could quickly become very fussy. Not Apple Watch.
I have a feeling I’m not alone in being manic this way: You hear an alert from your phone, find that it was nothing important, and ends up opening apps or surf for many minutes before something in you tells you that you really are wasting your time. Apple Watch has greatly reduced these moments.
And with its many different vibrations press one understands finally what type of notifications you get without hearing a single sound or to peek at the screen or mobile. I actually use the mobile less now with the clock on.
It is a great achievement in itself, especially when luxury problem can be eliminated by the company that has “blamed” that for many years I wasted a lot time on nothing.
Anyone who jogger knows how annoying it is to not be able to easily select a new song, check the clock or stop tracking your workout. An Apple Watch solves these problems. Moreover, the pulse monitor exact according to a series of tests, and after what I have experienced, but make sure it sit comfortably around your wrist when you measure.
The user interface took us surprisingly long time to get used to. Alessandro La Tona / ITavisen
Apps It’s early clocks lifetime. So I think it gets much better as there will be more useful apps.
Our favorites so far are Uber, Hooks (great notification app), music controller, Apple Maps, Nike + and DNB’s app makes it very easy to examine balance.
List is not long for a reason: It’s alerts I use it the most. At least so app ecosystem and the clock works now.
All notices coming on mobile served on the wrist if desired. Want to turn off alerts or sound, is made from at or mobile – the changes reflected in both devices. It is very convenient.
iPhone time is dependent on an iPhone for networks and to provide the main feature: Alerts.
You can store music locally (8GB) on it and take a trip out without iPhone (remember Bluetooth headset), but remember that the GPS feature does not work if you do it. Again, it depends on your mobile phone.
Most of the settings can be found on the paired mobile phone, and well there. The screen is the much larger. The main thing you do is set up the “Glance” you will have access to when you swipe up from the bottom of the screen.
Map support is helpful. X-number of vibrations guides you to the right or left. You have to look at either clock or mobile. Again makes Apple’s own product that uses mobile their less.
The performance is good it except that startup applications that retrieve information from mobile user for a long time, and it makes all the third party apps. They have in fact not allowed to store the entire app on the clock memory.
Support for this comes later, and perhaps within it is launched in Norway (we still do not know when this will happen).
It is expected revelations at WWDC June 8. It will be interesting to see how this will affect battery life.
Do you take it off the wrist it requests the PIN code at once, but connected to iCloud account for increased security is not. That means thieves can reset the clock, and use it normally. Alessandro La Tona / ITavisen
Battery how I use it, not the battery been a problem – in fact I have experienced having a little over 40 percent again at bedtime, and then I’ve been up for 15 hours. The time used to look at the time from time to time, but most of alerts.
If I had 60 percent at bedtime I might not charged it for the next day’s session, but as with mobile wishes I want to be absolutely sure. You never know what might happen the next day.
90 per cent of all owners will not have problems with battery life.
A typical day Apple Watch:
* 100 percent 8:30: In clockwise.
* 87 percent 10:00: jog for 45 minutes.
* 76 percent at 1413: Receives some forecasts, but otherwise it has been very actively in use the last two hours.
* 62 percent at 6:15 p.m.: Still small pro-active use.
* 52 percent 8:13 p.m.: Lite used and simultaneously alerts
* 42 percent 11:00: INSTALLATION and charging times.
We prefer minimalism. That makes Apple too. Alessandro La Tona / ITavisen
Anke points It took longer to get used to Apple’s first clock than any other Apple product I’ve tested, and I’ve tested all the last 6 years – it’s not just because they have never made a smart clock before. It would be easy to clean up when it’s interface software is the culprit.
There are few or no visual clues where to tap or swipe, and that one can remove all alerts by pressing hard on the screen, I found out by accident. “Force Touch” is baked into a variety of applications, but one must guess if the developer benefits from it, and how it is activated. Affordable hopeless.
That it takes up to several weeks to get used to a new Apple product is not luck, nor typical for them.
It is especially damaging because Apple wooing new customers with a smart watch. That it is a bit cumbersome to understand can get to be a big problem if they do not brennkvikt launches Apple Watch OS 1.1 with major improvements.
Safir screen can not handle sunlight as good as I had hoped for something that is extra noticeable when wearing sunglasses during the session.
We want more clock face. Fortunately you can change the Apple offering. Alessandro La Tona / ITavisen
Conclusion name is ITavisen. We write about technology, but we can not stop there. Not anymore.
Technology is no longer something that is hidden behind a black box in the basement. Therefore, we have a relatively short time to think design and how it shapes the experience the new digital life delivers us.
All in all, this is a good product design and quality, but suffering from a bit of version 1.0 Flu. Things work fine, but is not completely where . Apple has even added the bar very high in the last decade.
I appreciate that Apple Watch knows what I make myself, in a hope to improve our health. Are you sitting too long, you get a notification to trip you up.
Are you too far away calorie burning goal you set when you first set up the clock, reminding the you sympathetic to move slightly. Are you really close to reach current targets, provides the extra-push as well. It’s almost a little cozy. It will sort you well.
It never gets annoying, even after several weeks.
App selection is huge, but there is no shortage on the real smart and great apps. This product is likely to be very much better in a short time. You may well wait until the second generation, but a major update of Apple Watch OS will probably do it much better before then.
Do you use your mobile a lot, exercising a little, and simply want a wristwatch Apple Watch a bargain, but only if you have an iPhone already, but just the fact that I want it on us every day, making it the market’s best smart clock.
It works namely not with Android . Therefore, it can quickly become too expensive for something you may not need.
It was hard for me to decide me for a grade. Four or five? Eventually I ended up on a solid four. I keep being happier in this clock, but due to some not entirely satisfying experiences when it comes to interfaces, app quality and app load time, I can not give fives now.
It may well be Apple’s first smart clock is an obvious fiver about a half years, but I can not rate based on assumptions about the future, no matter how sure I am that Apple sees his own mistakes and make them work.
dice: 4.
You’re wasting less time on mobile + The delectable smart at the market + Sitting firmly and it comes with an S / M extra-strap escalate + Racing + Great panel + “Force Touch” makes it much easier to use + Precise heart rate monitor > + Perfect health and fitness buddy + Easy to change strap
– Confusing interface helped not by two buttons – Missing apps you just must have – Uses for a long time to start third-party apps – The panel could have been better in sunlight – Takes too long to get used to – Requires iPhone – Siri can not Norwegian
Last year’s new waterproof mobile and tablet series, Z3 has undoubtedly been a success for Sony Mobile.
In September, the trio Xperia Z3, Z3 compact and tablet Z3 Tablet Launched – all in water- and dust-proof design.
– Now we upgrade with a new version, called Z3 +, says marketing manager for Sony Mobile in Norway, Frank Otter Beck.
The phone resembles its predecessor Z3, but have been some important millimeters thinner and a few grams lighter.
The screen is still 5.2 inches, resolution of 1920×1080 dots is the same, but Sony claims they have enhanced screen quality so that it will be a few notches sharper both brightness and contrast, which will provide better screen experience in different lighting conditions
– We have chosen to put everything we have top technologies in the new flagship model, says European Marketing Manager of Sony Mobile, Ola Lilja Molén.
Successful predecessor
He says that along with the compact version of its predecessor, the Z3 compact, Sony Mobile had great success with the sale. It has contributed to that in Norway has secured a solid third place in the market by Samsung and Apple.
– The Nordic market stand out. Especially in Sweden and Norway, the demand for top models very large.
He will not say whether they were planning an upgraded version of the sales success Z3 compact too, but promises new phones approximately every six months. Consumer electronics fair IFA in Berlin in the fall tend to be the scene of new launches. A Z3 + compact, might emerge there.
New Z3 + is like its predecessors also waterproof. But instead of charging socket is located on the side of the phone, behind a rubber lid to keep water and moisture out – it is now placed in an open USB port on the bottom.
Among other things, make it easier to set it in a docking station for charging and music playback.
The battery in the new version has slightly less capacity than before, but Sony promises still better battery life. Under normal use it in two days, laws Otterbeck.
As with Samsung’s new Galaxy S6, Sony has developed quick charger to charge my phone to one days capacity in just 45 minutes. This must be purchased next to that option.
Better front camera
The main camera is of the same type and specification as its predecessor. Front camera, however, improved on Z3 +. According Otterbeck it is a consequence of selfies wave.
– We have also added a width feature that makes it easier to take gruppeselfier that has become so popular lately.
Z3 + has Like its predecessors, glass front and rear. In addition to white, black and the very popular (it turned out) bronze variant, it comes in a sea green – almost turquoise execution.
Only one version
Unlike the competition comes Z3 + in only one version with an internal storage capacity of 32 Gigabyte, but with the ability to insert and easily replace the additional capacity of memory cards with capacities up to 128GB.
Under the cover we find an eight-core 64 bit processor and the phone is also ready for mobile operators new and improved data speeds of 4G +.

Promising first impressions
We’ve borrowed a specimen of the new phone, and used it in exactly one day. It all seems very promising, but the improvements and differences compared to its predecessor is not too large.
A little thinner and lighter as it is, is it very well in hand.
The phone is very fast and the camera at least as good as its predecessor. One of the market’s best.
So you have a well-Z3 from before – hold onto it a little longer. Do you have a Z3-compact and still want larger screen, or your old phone is broken or worn, Xperia Z3 + one of the best Android phone, if not the best at the market right now.
With better camera and generally better than it might fiercest competitor Android, Samsung Galaxy S6.
The suggested retail price is 6500 dollars, the same as Samsung is asking for its Galaxy S6 with 32GB. Hardly a coincidence.

Your side You know security questions can either be asked to make or answer to provide online account an extra layer of protection? It turns out that they are not so secure after all.
According to a new survey from Google’s security actually the least secure way to access your account if you eg forget your password or get locked out, writes PC Mag.
Either because they are easy to remember and therefore easy for hackers to guess, or too difficult to remember, and thus facilitate users to forget. Some happy medium does not exist, writes TechCrunch.

WHERE ARE THE SECRET?: Google investigated how secret security really is. (Photo: GOOGLE)
The findings come after studying hundreds of millions of questions and answers from Google users who have restored their accounts writes Google in a blog post.
Not surprisingly, it turns out that the simple answers are the least secure, often because they often contain known or publicly available information.
If you guessing favorite food to an English speaking user, a hacker getting closer by guessing “pizza”; nearly 20 percent of Google users have this as their answer.
Question about people and places should not be so sure, and here also cultural differences play a role.
The question “What city were you born in?” Should be easier to guess right on fewer attempts with a Korean user compared with an English user, due to the concentration of Korean-speaking users in a few large cities (39 percent against 6.9 percent in ten attempts), according to the survey.
According to Google, many users have also the same false answers to supposedly safe questions like “What is your phone number” and “What is the number for the benefit program “. And since they are false, it becomes easier for hackers to crack.

” Eh, what yellow elephant? “
There is also a problem that many do not remember the answers to security questions their simply because they are too difficult. Where your mother went to elementary school or library card number? Not so easy to get on the move, according to Google.
It got signed even recently experienced when I would get access to an old bank account, and I over the phone had to come up with an answer to “What is the name of the yellow elephant ? “. Several weeks later I still have not been able to determine the yellow elephant in question …
According to Google considered “What is your father’s middle name” to be less a safe question than “What was your the first number, “yet there were several who managed to remember the answer to the first mentioned; 76 percent versus 55 percent.
According to the survey was 40 percent of the English-speaking users in the US who could not remember their questions at all.
And the more questions, the harder it is to remember them – so when it matters little in the one of the answers are easy to guess.
