At which 1977 event did Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak publicly showcase the Apple II computer?

Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak publicly showcased the Apple II at the first West Coast Computer Faire in 1977.

The event took place in San Francisco from April 16 to 17, 1977, and became an important early gathering for the personal-computer industry. Apple displayed the Apple II there alongside other emerging computer companies.

The Apple II was more complete and user-friendly than many hobbyist machines of the period. It included a keyboard, color graphics, and a plastic case, helping present personal computing as a consumer product rather than only an electronics project.

A common mix-up is confusing this event with the Homebrew Computer Club, where Jobs and Wozniak had previously demonstrated computer projects to fellow enthusiasts. The West Coast Computer Faire was a public trade-show setting and gave Apple valuable visibility before the Apple II went on sale later in 1977.
