Steve Jobs by Trey Taylor

Steve was born on February 24, 1955 in San Francisco. His mother, Joanne Simpson, was unmarried and unable to pay for the child so he was sent to an orphanage. In high school Steve Jobs had an interest for technology. In 1974 Steve Jobs needed money so he got a job at Atari. Nolan Bushel, the founder of Atari, was Steve's inspiration for Apple. In his spare time he made computer circuits, he joined a computer club called Homebrew computer club. Steve had made a computer in his spare time. It was the first apple computer, it looked nothing like the one we have today because there technology wasn't advanced as ours is now. but it was still a great technological advancement for there time. to get the money to start funding his company, he sold his van. He had ordered 5o machines with the money from his van and then his company took off. The apple logo with all the colors was to show that the computers could display higher resolution colors. Tewnty-five years later they had made the first Ipod. The Ipod is the thing that everybody has to have. The Ipods would show Apples customers how fast and reliable they were and that would in turn make the people want to buy apple computers and that's where apple got its start. And to think that this all got started on spare time with extra parts by HP.
