Some nice detective work by Robert Davey gives us this Wolfram Alpha query:
(AAPL price / AAPL IPO price) * $1000
Plug it in, and you’ll find that an investment of $1,000 in the original 1980 Apple IPO would give you approximately $208,000 dollars today.

Look at the link – it adjusts for splits.
Clicking on the Wolfram Alpha link shows that it’s split-adjusted.
be interesting to see if you invested when steve jobs returned – that is a more plausible scenario of investment. it’s pretty unlikely someone would not have cashed out from the initial Ipo
