商業(yè)成功英語口語視頻教程 (中級(jí))：5_Apples Early Years

Apple Computer was established in 1976 by Ronald Wayne, Steve Wozniak, and Steve Jobs.

After only two weeks, Wayne left the company and sold his 10% stock for $800.

If he'd kept those 10% to this day, it would be worth over 60 billion.

A few months after Wayne's departure, Apple released the Apple I.

Steve Wozniak developed and designed both the hardware and operating system.

In fact, the Apple I was the first time in history...

...that a character displayed on a TV screen was generated by a home computer.

Only a year later, Wozniak developed the Apple II,...

...the first PC with color.

In 1984, Apple launched the first Macintosh.

In 1985, something interesting happened.

A power struggle developed between Jobs and then CEO John Sculley.

As a result of this, Apple's board of directors removed Jobs from his management duties,...

...which in turn led to his resignation from the company the same year.
