In my storage place above my den where I store stuff I'll never use again I have the 1115 AppleII built. When purchased it came with 16 K of memory, the processor (6502) operated at a blazing .98 megahertz. it could generate 4 colors if you counted white and integer based Basic built in. There is fair chance that Waz put it together himself. I purchased it in 1977. I retired it around 1982 at that time I ran a Z80 co-processor in it (to run CPM) had bumped up the RAM to 128 K and had a 80 column video card and a full keyboard, the hard drive was a whopping 2 mega byte. and the monitor had been upgraded to a floating point basic.
