Youth Steven Paul Jobs was born on February 24, 1955 in San .docxdanielfoster65629
Youth
Steven Paul Jobs was born on February 24, 1955 in San Francisco,
California. His unwed biological parents, Joanne Schieble and Abdulfattah
Jandali, put him up for adoption. Steve was adopted by Paul and Clara
Jobs, a lower-middle-class couple, who moved to the suburban city of
Mountain View a couple of years later.
Paul Jobs and his son
The Santa Clara county, south of the Bay Area, became known as Silicon
Valley in the early 1950s after the sprouting of a myriad of semi-conductor
companies. As a result, young Steve Jobs grew up in a neighborhood of
engineers working on electronics and other gizmos in their garages on
weekends. This shaped his interest in the field as he grew up. At age 13,
he met one the most important persons in his life: 18-year-old Stephen
Wozniak, an electronics wiz kid, and, like Steve, an incorrigible prankster.
Five years later, when Steve Jobs reached college age, he told his parents
he wanted to enroll in Reed College — an expensive liberal arts college up
in Oregon. Even though the tuition fees were astronomical for the poor
couple, they had promised their son's biological parents he would get a
college education, so they relented. Steve spent only one semester at
Reed, then dropped out, as he was more interested in eastern philosophy,
fruitarian diets, and LSD than in the classes he took. He moved to a hippie
commune in Oregon where his main activity was cultivating apples.
A few months later, Steve returned to California to look for a job. He was
hired at the young video game maker Atari, and used his wages to make a
trip to India with one of his college friends, in order to 'seek
enlightenment'. He came back a little disillusioned and started to take
interest in his friend Woz's new activities.
Apple's origins
The Jobses garage
Woz, whose interest in electronics had grown stronger, was regularly
attending meetings of a group of early computer hobbyists called the
Homebrew Computer Club. They were the real pioneers of personal
computing, a collection of radio jammers, computer professionals and
enlightened amateurs who gathered to show off their latest prowess in
building their own personal computer or writing software. The club started
to gain popularity after the Altair 8800 personal computer kit came out in
1975.
The knowledge that Woz gathered at the Homebrew meetings, as well as
his exceptional talent, allowed him to build his own computer board —
simply because he wanted a personal computer for himself. Steve Jobs
took interest, and he quickly understood that his friend's brilliant invention
could be sold to software hobbyists, who wanted to write software
without the hassle of assembling a computer kit. Jobs convinced Wozniak
to start a company for that purpose: Apple Computer was born on April 1,
1976.
The following months were spent assembling boards of Apple I computers
in the Jobses' garage, and selling them to independent computer dealers
in .
The case study discusses the potential of drone delivery and the challenges that need to be addressed before it becomes widespread.
Key takeaways:
Drone delivery is in its early stages: Amazon's trial in the UK demonstrates the potential for faster deliveries, but it's still limited by regulations and technology.
Regulations are a major hurdle: Safety concerns around drone collisions with airplanes and people have led to restrictions on flight height and location.
Other challenges exist: Who will use drone delivery the most? Is it cost-effective compared to traditional delivery trucks?
Discussion questions:
Managerial challenges: Integrating drones requires planning for new infrastructure, training staff, and navigating regulations. There are also marketing and recruitment considerations specific to this technology.
External forces vary by country: Regulations, consumer acceptance, and infrastructure all differ between countries.
Demographics matter: Younger generations might be more receptive to drone delivery, while older populations might have concerns.
Stakeholders for Amazon: Customers, regulators, aviation authorities, and competitors are all stakeholders. Regulators likely hold the greatest influence as they determine the feasibility of drone delivery.

9. Major innovation
“Apple I, Rising” 1976-1985
1. The Apple I credited as the first personal computer to be sold in fully
assembled form & the first personal computer to use a keyboard.
2. In technical terms, this was the first single-board, microprocessor based
microcomputer. It included a central processing unit (CPU), RAM, and basic textual-
video chips.
3. It could use a TV as the display system, then showing only text. Many machines at that time had no display
at all. With the Apple I, text appeared on screen then a fairly slow rate at 60 characters per second.
4. Jobs and Wozniak then took their new computer to the companies they were familiar with Hewlett-Packard
and Atari but neither saw much demand for a “personal” computer. Sitting in Jobs’ bedroom in Los Altos,
California, Jobs proposed that he and Wozniak start their own company to sell the devices.
5. It went on sale in July 1976 at a price of $666.66

11. Competitive situation in starting stage
1. Two major competitors: Commodore and Tandy. Both companies introduced a
computer the same year as the original Apple II, i.e., in 1977.
2. Tandy outsold the Apple II with its TRS-80.
3. Four years later in August 1981, IBM introduced its first personal computer to the
marketplace priced at $1,565
4. IBM had a formidable product launch, including a sophisticated TV ad campaign that
used a Charlie Chaplin-esque figure who became the mascot for IBM PCs
5. Apple publicly welcomed IBM into the fray, running a full-page ad in the Wall Street
Journal with a headline that read, “Welcome IBM. Seriously.”
6. Three years later (in 1984), Apple introduced the Macintosh. The two main competitors
then were Microsoft and Commodore again.
7. IBM remained an important competitor to Apple during the Macintosh years. However,
even though Microsoft were not selling computers, the Macintosh’s true competition
was Windows, that could run on IBM hardware, but also on the many clones and
compatibles (Compaq, Dell)

• What do think about next cellphones ?
25. Future (ProjectTitan)
The rumor, that apple is running secretly project to
developing electric car and reportly known as project titan.
Undoubtedly, this would be one of the biggest surprises in
the coming years among the top future apple products that
could be launched by Apple.
Many recent reports have suggested that Apple is
gathering a team to build its own electric car and
consulting car building experts in this regard.
The recent news from the Wall Street Journal has reported
that Apple has plans to implement the self-driving
technology built using sophisticated vehicle software.
Reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo also believes that
Apple is still working on an Apple Car that will launch
between 2023 and 2025.
