Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has revealed that the legend about the birthplace of the Apple I and Apple II computers is a myth.

According to New York Post, speaking to Businessweek's Brandon Lisy, Wozniak said the idea that Apple was started in Apple founder Steve Jobs' parents garage in Los Altos, California, was a bit of a myth.

The computer pioneer said that there were no designs created, no breadboarding, no prototyping, nor any planning of products in the garage.

He said that no manufacturing was done in the garage and that it did not serve much purpose, except making them feel like they were home.
