ответ:In the late 1970s, Steve and his friend Steve Wozniak developed one of the first personal computers with great commercial potential. The Apple II computer was the first mass-market product of Apple, created on the initiative of Steve jobs. Later, jobs saw the commercial potential of a mouse-controlled graphical interface, which led to the introduction of the Apple Lisa and, a year later, the Macintosh (Mac).
After losing a power struggle with the Board of Directors in 1985, jobs left Apple and founded NeXT, a company that developed a computer platform for universities and businesses. In 1986, it acquired the computer graphics division of the Lucasfilm film company, turning it into Pixar studios. He remained Pixar's CEO and major shareholder until the Studio was acquired by the Walt Disney Company in 2006, making jobs the largest private shareholder and a member of Disney's Board of Directors.
Difficulties with developing a new operating system for Mac led to the purchase of NeXT by Apple in 1996, to use NeXTSTEP as the basis for Mac OS X. As part of the deal, jobs received a position as an adviser to Apple. By 1997, jobs had regained control of Apple, taking over the Corporation. Under his leadership, the company was saved from bankruptcy and a year later began to make a profit. Over the next decade, jobs led the development of the iMac, iTunes, iPod, iPhone, and iPad, as well as the development of the Apple Store, iTunes Store, App Store, and iBookstore. The success of these products and services, which provided several years of stable financial profits, allowed Apple to become the most expensive public company in the world in 2011. Many commentators call Apple's resurgence one of the greatest achievements in business history. At the same time, jobs was criticized for his authoritarian management style, aggressive actions towards competitors, and desire for total control over products even after they are sold to the buyer.
Jobs has received public recognition and a number of awards for his influence on the technology and music industries. He is often called a "visionary" and even the "father of the digital revolution". Jobs was a brilliant speaker and took presentations of innovative products to the next level, turning them into exciting shows. His easily recognizable figure in a black turtleneck, faded jeans and sneakers is surrounded by a kind of cult.
