The very first Mac Plus, owned by Star Trek creator Gene Roddenberry, is on sale now.  The original creators of the Mac presented Roddenberry with the computer, to which he featured in Star Trek 4: The Voyage Home. (See the clip above).  It was one of the first occurences that Roddenbery utilized modern technology in his work.
