Steve Jobs???
Steve Jobs CEO of Apple Computer Pixar Steve
Jobs is CEO of Apple, a leader in personal
computing devices which he co-founded in 1976,
and CEO of Pixar, the Academy-Award-winning
computer animation studios which he co-founded in
1986. Apple ignited the personal computer
revolution in the 1970s with the Apple II and
reinvented the personal computer in the 1980s
with the Macintosh. Apple is committed to
bringing the best personal computing experience
to students, educators, creative professionals
and consumers around the world through its
innovative hardware, software and Internet
offerings. Pixar has created half of the top six
domestic grossing animated films of all time Toy
Story (1995), A Bug's Life (1998) and Toy Story 2
(1999). Each film was released under Pixar's
partnership with Walt Disney Pictures, and became
the highest grossing animated film for the year
it was released. Steve grew up in the apricot
orchards which later became known as Silicon
Valley, and still lives there with his wife and
three children.

Steven Wozniak and Steven Jobs had been friends
in high school. They had both been interested in
electronics, and both had been perceived as
outsiders. They kept in touch after graduation,
and both ended up dropping out of school and
getting jobs working for companies in Silicon
Valley. (Woz for Hewlett-Packard, Jobs for
Atari) Wozniak had been dabbling in
computer-design for some time when, in 1976, he
designed what would become the Apple I. Jobs, who
had an eye for the future, insisted that he and
Wozniak try to sell the machine, and on April 1,
1976, Apple Computer was born. Hobbyists did not
take the Apple I very seriously, and Apple did
not begin to take off until 1977, when the Apple
II debuted at a local computer trade show. The
first personal computer to come in a plastic case
and include color graphics, the Apple II was an
impressive machine. Orders for Apple machines
were multiplied by several times after its
introduction. And with the introduction in early
'78 of the Apple Disk II, the most inexpensive,
easy to use floppy drive ever (at the time),
Apple sales further increased. With the increase
in sales, however, came an increase in company
size, and by 1980, when the Apple III was
released, Apple had several thousand employees,
and was beginning to sell computers abroad. Apple
had taken on a number of more experienced
mid-level managers and, more importantly, several
new investors, who opted to take seats on the
board of directors. Older, more conservative men,
the new directors made sure that Apple became a
"real company," much to the dismay of many of its
original employees. In 1981, things got a bit
more difficult. A saturated market made it more
difficult to sell computers, and in February.
Apple was forced to lay off 40 employees. Wozniak
was injured in a plane crash. He took a leave of
absence and returned only briefly. Jobs became
chairman of Apple computer in March.
