Here is my personal Steve Jobs story. I was an hp employee in 2005. My autistic son and I went into an Apple store and they had a program for kids to use while the parents were shopping called Just for Kids that would allow the kids to use the machines but not change settings. My son would constantly go into my home office and change the settings on my Microsoft computer. So, I decided to send Steve an email (guessed at his email) on a sunday after to ask how I could buy the just for kids app. 20 minutes later I get an email from him saying he wanted to help and that someone would call me the next day. Two months later his people had cleared the licensing restrictions to allow me to get the software and be the only non store to have it. Then a computer shows up at my front door with the software....all free. That was the kind of guy Steve was and even though I'm now an HP retiree, we only use apple products in my house

@why Maybe its because you're used to talk to your mum like this but you should watch how you talk to people you dont know, no one ask you i was asking h3cz
@@brandongbz1574 dont worry my guy, sometimes you just wonder who raised these mfs and wished these 2000s babies were apart from the rest of the civilized community
Damn Steve was a really hard guy to bargain with. So if Andy would have got up and left when Jobs wouldn't pay 325m, I wonder what kind of valuation would his company get after that?
About that 3:40 mark, you didn't remember how much money your first group of investors gave. Either 50K or 100K? Everyone remembers exactly how much money and from exactly who their first round of investment came... Story doesn't add up...
Watching Friends and clicking on something to buy an outfit? Is that really what people got into tech for, to sell crap to couch dwellers that they don't really need, and track everything they do so you can advertise garbage to them? There has to be more to tech and the internet than taking EVERY SINGLE SPACE and turning it into some BS ad that no one wants to see.
