Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 73417, member: 636"] Christie's is getting ready to sell the original Apple partnership paperwork for somewhere between $2 million and $4 million at an auction. The lot has the three-page agreement that tied together Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ron Wayne, plus the withdrawal papers Wayne signed just a few days after founding the company. This marks the second time the document has hit the auction block. Sotheby's moved it back in 2011 when Eduardo Cisneros dropped $1.59 million to snag it, though the actual hammer price sat closer to $1.35 million after you strip out the auction house cut. Wayne originally held 10 percent of Apple while Jobs and Wozniak each grabbed 45 percent. He bailed on his stake for $800 pretty much right after signing on. That slice would be worth around $400 billion at current valuations, which has gotta sting just a bit. [/QUOTE]
