Steve Jobs- Entrepreneur,Cofounder of Apple Inc

Steve Jobs was cofounder of Apple Computer.Jobs showed an enthusiastic interest in electronics starting in his high
school years and gained experience through summer work at Hewlett-Packard.In 1974, he began to work for pioneer video game designer Nolan Bushnell at Atari. He also
became a key member of the Homebrew Computer Club, a group of hobbyists who designed their own microcomputer
systems using early microprocessors.
Meanwhile, Jobs’s friend Steve Wozniak(Cofounded Apple With Jobs) had developed plans for a complete microcomputer system that could be
built using a single-board design and relatively simple circuits.
They formed a company called Apple Computer(named apparently for the vanished orchards of Silicon Valley)
and built a prototype they called the Apple I.Although
they could only afford to build a few dozen of the machines,
they made a favorable impression on the computer enthusiast
community. By 1977, they were marketing a more complete
and refined version, the Apple II about 2 million of the machines were eventually sold. In
1982, when Time magazine featured the personal computer
as its “man of the year,” Jobs’s picture appeared on the cover. Jobs left the
company in 1985. Using the money from selling his Apple
stock, Jobs bought a controlling interests in Pixar, a graphics
studio that had been spun off from LucasFilm. He also
founded a company called NextStep. The company focused
on high-end graphics workstations that used a sophisticated
object-oriented operating system.Jobs returned as CEO of Apple. By then the
company was struggling to maintain market share for its
Macintosh line in a world that was firmly in the “Wintel”
(Windows on Intel-based processors) camp. He had some
success in revitalizing Apple’s consumer product line with
the iMac, a colorful, slim version of the Macintosh. He also
focused on development of the new Mac OS X, a blending of
the power of UNIX with the ease-of-use of the traditional
Macintosh interface.Jobs only made the apple products to be more fame among the people.
Jobs died on October-5 2011.
