Hello guys, ive been studying Steve Jobs for a while not in school and i really think we need to clarify some things, some of you barely know who he is, i suggest you keep reading anyways.

Steve Jobs started as a kush-smoking hippie, a school drop-out, but yet he accomplished so mutch, he changed the world.

Imagine if Steve Jobs didnt invent Apple, our computers wouldent be as advanced as they are today, the iPhone's wouldent exist, no Apps like Instagram.

The world would be so mutch diffrent.

Could you imagine going a day without using your iDevice? I'm sure the answer is no, we hold our devices close to ourselves, we constantly need to be connected.

Steve Jobs was a person who just never stopped beliving in what hes doing.

I will surely miss him, i wonder what he could have done if he wouldent have passed, he would probably revolusionize our world once again.

 

Steve's full name was: Steven Paul Jobs 

 

February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American pioneer of the personal computer revolution of the 1970s (along with engineer, inventor, andApple Computer co-founder, Steve Wozniak). Shortly after his death, Jobs's official biographer, Walter Isaacson described him as the "creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing." Adopted at birth in San Francisco and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area during the 1960s, Jobs's countercultural lifestyle was a product of his time. As a senior at Homestead High School, in Cupertino, California, his two closest friends were the older engineering student (and Homestead High alumnus) Steve Wozniak and his countercultural girlfriend, the artistically inclined Homestead High junior Chrisann Brennan. Jobs briefly attended Reed College in 1972 before dropping out, deciding to travel through India in 1974, and study Buddhism.

He co-founded Apple in 1976 in his parents' Los Altos home on Crist Drive in order to sell Wozniak's Apple I personal computer. "Jobs and Woz" gained fame and wealth a year later for the Apple II (which was designed primarily by Wozniak, but Jobs oversaw the development of its unusual case and Rod Holt developed the unique power supply) one of the first highly successful mass-produced personal computers. The Apple II dominated the personal computer market until it was destabilized by the introduction of the IBM-PC (powered by Microsoft's MS-DOS) in 1981. In 1979, after a tour of Xerox PARC, Jobs saw the commercial potential of the Xerox Alto (which was mouse-driven and had a graphical user interfaceor GUI). After failing to create such a device with the Apple Lisa (which Jobs named after his daughter with Chrisann, Lisa, a fact that Jobs would only admit years later after he initially denied paternity), he turned to the struggling Macintosh team. In January 1984, Jobs launched the original Macintosh (the first mass-produced computer with a graphical user interface) with the 1984 commercial broadcast during the Super Bowl. The Macintosh also instigated the sudden rise of the desktop publishing industry in 1985 with the addition of the Apple LaserWriter, the first laser printer to feature vector graphics. Despite the fanfare, the expensive Macintosh was a hard sell.[3] Jobs, however, continued to promote the Macintosh undeterred by its prohibitive cost and fter a long power struggle, Jobs was forced out of the company in September in 1985.

Jobs then underwent a number of changes during the period of 1985-1996. After leaving Apple, he subsequently took a few of its members with him to found NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in state of the art, higher end computers for higher-education and business markets. In addition, Jobs helped to instigate the development of the visual effects industry when he funded the spinout of the computer graphics division of George Lucas' company Lucasfilm in February 1986.[5] The new company, renamedPixar, would eventually produce the first fully computer-generated animated film, Toy Story, an event made possible in part due to Jobs's financial support.

By 1997, Apple was nearly bankrupt. Jobs thus negotiated Apple's purchase of NeXT (the NeXTSTEP platform would become the foundation for Mac OS X) which would allow him to return as the company's interim CEO. He would eventually became Apple's CEO and bring the company back to profitability by 1998. Beginning in 1997 with the Think differentcampaign, Jobs began to work closely with designer Jonathan "Jony" Ive towards a line of devices (named by ad executive Ken Segall) that would have larger cultural ramifications: the iMac (1998); iTunes, the Apple Stores, and the iPod (2001); the iTunes Store (2003); the iPhone (2007); the App Store (2008); and the iPad (2010). Jobs was diagnosed with apancreas neuroendocrine tumor in 2003 and died of respiratory arrest related to the tumor on October 5, 2011.

 

Thanks for reading.

I hope you realize what he have done for the world, he changed it in so many ways, so many new ways of thinking, RIP Steve Jobs, we iOSGods users truly love you, our forum wouldent exist if it wasnt for you.

 

 

XoXo Yterby.

A great person no doubt, but claimed by many to be an asshole in real life. Not too sure either way.

 

Definitely not the greatest inventor though, even when it comes to processors and computing in general. Arguably, what he has done is great, but inadvertently based on processor technology invented during the Second World War. 

 

Imo being a visionary and his charisma are his greatest assets.

The first movie they had showed his as an inspirational person but now the new movie will show him as very strict.

Yeah, balanced viewpoints are always great. He definitely deserves plaudits, but I believe the worship among some may prove to be excessive.

He was the head of a body and his friends were the body parts (workers). He just had the idea. :p

Yeah, he was definitely important to Apple. However, being the CEO and thus figurehead of his company, his contributions to their success tend to be overestimated.
