This is a pretty cool story, thought I'd share.

On a recent night at an elegant Beaux-Arts ballroom in San Francisco?s financial district, Laurene Powell Jobs received a computer with an unusually rich history. Around 1980, Ms. Powell Jobs?s husband, Steven P. Jobs, donated the computer to a nonprofit organization, the Seva Foundation, to help the group manage data from its efforts to restore sight in the developing world. The nonprofit was now giving the computer ? an Apple II that spent the last 33 years in Katmandu, Nepal, most of it packed away in a hospital basement there ? back to Ms. Powell Jobs and her children from her marriage to Mr. Jobs.
