We tell you six fascinating anecdotes of the life of this genius of computer science and electronics. Direct to Silicon Valley. Steve Jobs was born in San Francisco in February 1955 and, as his parents were students and they were not in marriage, he was given up for adoption a week after he was born. It was adopted by Paul and Clara Jobs , who moved to Mountain View, California, a rural town that became the headquarters of Silicon Valley , the "paradise of electronics and information technology", where the main technology companies of today have their headquarters. everyone. Disenchanted with the faculty.
Jobs only one semester was extended in the faculty (in Red College, in Oregon), disenchanted with the educational system, anyway he continued to attend calligraphy classes.
His first job was in Atari, one of the first video game companies. He saved some money and left work to go to India "in search of lighting." In the garage. In 1975 he founded with Steve Wozniak Apple Computer Inc. , which emerged in the room of Jobs . They have started assembling processors by hand in their parents' garage.
In a few years the jump that gave that company was gigantic, and in 1983 Apple had already entered the Fortune 500, occupying the position 411, the fastest acceleration of a company in business history.
From Apple to Pixar. Jobs left Apple in 1985 after being dismissed, but soon became the CEO of another large company that he founded, Pixar. With Jobs at the helm, Pixar produced the animated films Toy Story (the first fully computer-generated feature film) and Bichos. "People at the moment do not read Herodoto or Homer to their children, but they all watch movies," Jobs said in a statement to Time magazine.
The revolution of the apple. When he returned to Apple in 1997, he reorganized the company and started working on new equives, creating the iMac, then the portable iBooks and finally the iPod player. In 2007 he changed the market again with his iPhone phone, and in 2010 he left the planet speechless with the iPad tablet. His idols. Jobs once claimed a journalist who admired Bob Dylan and Pablo Picasso because the two always "were risking failure."
