英语短文阅读:史蒂夫乔布斯英文简介 Steve Jobs' EnglishintroductionSteve Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American business magnate and investor. He was the chairman, chief executive officer (CEO), and co-founder of Apple Inc., the chairman and majority shareholder of Pixar, a member of The Walt Disney Company's board of directors following its acquisition of Pixar, and the founder, chairman, and CEO of NeXT. Jobs is widely recognized as a pioneer of the microcomputer revolution of the 1970s and 1980s, along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak.Jobs was born in San Francisco, California, and put up for adoption. He was raised in the San Francisco Bay Area during the 1960s. He attended Reed College in 1972 before dropping out that same year, and traveled through India in 1974 seeking enlightenment and studying Zen Buddhism. His declassified FBI report states that he used marijuana and LSD while he was in college, and once told a reporter that taking LSD was "one of the two or three most important things" he had done in his life.Jobs and Wozniak co-founded Apple in 1976 to sell Wozniak's Apple I personal computer. Together the duo gained fame and wealth a year later with the Apple II, one of the first successful mass-produced personal computers. Jobs saw the commercial potential of the Xerox Alto in 1979, which was mouse-driven and had a graphical user interface (GUI). This led to the development of the unsuccessful Apple Lisa in 1983, followed by the breakthrough Macintosh in 1984.。

Steven Jobs 名言录

Steven Jobs 名言录

几年后,儿孙会问,生活在史蒂夫·乔布斯担任苹果CEO的时代是怎样的。

他们会说:“乔布斯是最棒的商界CEO。

他是怎样的人?你从他那里学到了什么?”你怎样回答?忽视当下事物的重要之处是人之天性。

“他的每次重要演讲,或者收入报告会或者 YouTube上播放的闲谈,在他离去之后看起来都会智慧10倍,只因为他不在了。

所以,今天,让我们停下来,设法提醒自己史蒂夫·乔布斯教给我们的一些经验:1.最永久的发明创造都是艺术与科学的嫁接。

史蒂夫经常指出,苹果和其他所有计算机公司的最大区别在于苹果一真设法嫁接艺术与科学。

乔布斯指出,研究Mac的初始团队拥有人类学、艺术、历史和诗歌等学科的教育背景。

这对苹果产品脱颖而出一直很重要。

这是iPad与它之前或之后所有平板电脑的区别。

这是一种产品的外观和触觉,是它的灵魂。

但计算机科学家或工程师很难看出这种重要性,因此任何公司都必须有一个领袖认识到这种重要性。

2.要创造未来,你不能靠销售讨论组。

有一种管理理论认为,你必须倾听顾客的意见。

史蒂夫·乔布斯是第—个说这是浪费时间的商人之一。

今天的顾客并不总知道自己想要什么,尤其如果是他们从未见过、听过或接触过的东西。

当苹果要推出平板电脑的消息已经很明确时,很多人持怀疑态度。

当人们听到那个名字 (iPad),它成了微博上的笑料。

但是,当人们拿着它使用它的时候,它成了“必不可少的东西”。

他们不知道之前没有它是怎么过的。

iPad成为有史以来发展最快的苹果产品。

乔布斯(和苹果团队)信任自己胜过信任任何人。

几百年来,毕加索和其他伟大的艺术家都是如此。

乔布斯是第1个这么做的商界人士。

3.绝不要害怕失败。

乔布斯被自己挑选的继任者解雇。

这是商界30年来最著名的尴尬事之一。

但是,他没有从此成为一个默默无闻的风险资本家。

他没有创办一家制片公司,整天出去应酬。

他振作起来,回到自己热爱的工作。

8年前,他被诊断为胰腺癌,并被告知只有几周生命。

Steve Jobs 详细介绍

Steve Jobs 详细介绍

Steve Jobs - WikiPediaSteven Paul "Steve" Jobs (/ˈdʒɒbz/; February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American inventor and entrepreneur. He was co-founder, chairman, and chief executive officer of Apple Inc.Jobs was co-founder and previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios; he became a member of the board of directors of the Walt Disney Company in 2006, following the acquisition of Pixar by Disney.In the late 1970s, Jobs — along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak, Mike Markkula and others —designed, developed, and marketed one of the first commercially successful lines of personal computers, the Apple II series. In the early 1980s, Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of Xerox PARC's mouse-driven graphical user interface, which led to the creation of the Apple Lisa and, one year later, the Macintosh. After losing a power struggle with the board of directors in 1985, Jobs left Apple and founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in the higher-education and business markets.In 1986, he acquired the computer graphics division of Lucasfilm Ltd, which was spun off as Pixar Animation Studios.[7]He was credited in Toy Story(1995) as an executive producer. He remained CEO and majority shareholder at 50.1 percent until its acquisition by The Walt Disney Company in 2006,[8]making Jobs Disney's largest individual shareholder at seven percent and a member of Disney's Board of Directors.[9][10] Apple's 1996 buyout of NeXT brought Jobs back to the company he co-founded, and he served as its interim CEO from 1997, then becoming permanent CEO from 2000 onwards, spearheading the advent of the iPod, iPhone and iPad.[11]. From 2004, he fought a longbattle with cancer, [12] eventually leading to his resignation as CEO in August 2011, during his third medical leave. After his resignation, Jobs was elected chairman of Apple's board of directors.On October 5, 2011, around 3:00 p.m., Jobs died at his home in Palo Alto, California, aged 56, six weeks after resigning as CEO of Apple. A copy of his death certificate, which was made public on October 10, indicated respiratory arrest as the immediate cause of death, with "metastatic pancreas neuroendocrine tumor" as the underlying cause. His occupation was listed as "entrepreneur" in the "high tech" business.Early yearsJobs was born in San Francisco to graduate students Abdulfattah "John" Jandali, a Syrian Muslim[14], and Joanne Carole Schieble (later Simpson), an American of Swiss and German ancestry, who met at the University of Wisconsin.[15][16]Jobs was placed for adoption after Schieble's father opposed their marriage.[17]Jandali later became a professor of political science[18] while Schieble became a speech language pathologist[19]. Jandali is currently vice president of Boomtown Casino and Hotel in Reno, Nevada.[20][21] Schieble and Jandali married in December 1955 four months after her father died and ten months after giving up their baby boy. Their daughter, Jobs' biological sister, novelist Mona Simpson was born in 1957. Schieble and Jandali divorced in 1962. The siblings first met in 1984, and kept their relationship a secret until 1986.[19] They enjoyed a close adult relationship, with Jobs regularly visiting Simpson in Manhattan. From Simpson, Jobs learned more about their birth parents and he invited his biological mother Joanne tosome events.[6][22] Jandali's attempts, late in his life, to contact Jobs were unsuccessful;[23] Interviewed in August 2011 when Jobs resigned as CEO of Apple, Jandali said, "Sadly, [Joanne's] father was a tyrant and forbade her to marry me as I was from Syria. So she told me she wanted to give the baby up [...] I honestly do not know to this day if Steve is aware that, had it been my choice, I would have loved to have kept him [...] I just wish I hadn't been the selfish man I must have been, to allow both my children to turn their backs on me and pray it is not too late to tell Steve how I feel."[24][25]Jobs was adopted by the family of Paul Jobs and Clara Jobs (née Hagopian) who moved to Mountain View, California when he was five years old.[1][2] Paul and Clara later adopted a daughter, Patti. Paul Jobs, a machinist for a company that made lasers, taught his son rudimentary electronics and how to work with his hands.[1] His adoptive mother was an accountant.[19] Asked in a 1995 interview what he wanted to pass on to his children, Jobs replied, "Just to try to be as good a father to them as my father was to me. I think about that every day of my life." When asked about his "adoptive parents," Jobs replied emphatically that Paul and Clara Jobs "were my parents."[19]Jobs attended Cupertino Junior High and Homestead High School in Cupertino, California.[2] He frequented after-school lectures at the Hewlett-Packard Company in Palo Alto, California, and was later hired there, working with Steve Wozniak as a summer employee.[26] Following high school graduation in 1972, Jobs enrolled at Reed College in Portland, Oregon. Although he dropped out after only one semester,[27]he continued auditing classes at Reed, while sleeping on the floor in friends' rooms, returning Coke bottles for food money, and getting weekly free meals at the local Hare Krishna temple.[28]Jobs later said, "If I had never dropped in on that single calligraphy course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts."[28]In 1974, Jobs took a job as a technician at Atari, Inc.,[2] a manufacturer of video games, with the primary intent of saving money for a spiritual retreat to India.[citation needed]Jobs then traveled to India to visit Neem Karoli Baba[29] at his Kainchi Ashram with a Reed College friend (and, later, an early Apple employee), Daniel Kottke, in search of spiritual enlightenment. He came back a Buddhist with his head shaved and wearing traditional Indian clothing.[30][31]During this time, Jobs experimented with psychedelics, calling his LSD experiences "one of the two or three most important things [he had] done in [his] life".[32] He later said that people around him who did not share his countercultural roots could not fully relate to his thinking.[32]Jobs returned to Atari and was given the task of creating a circuit board for the game Breakout. According to Atari co-founder Nolan Bushnell, Atari offered $100 for each chip that was eliminated in the machine. Jobs had little interest in or knowledge of circuit board design and made a deal with Wozniak to split the bonus evenly between them if Wozniak could minimize the number of chips. Much to the amazement of Atari, Wozniak reduced the number of chips by 50, a design so tight that it was impossible to reproduce on an assembly line. According to Wozniak, Jobs told Wozniak that Atari gave them only $700 (instead of the offered $5,000) and that Wozniak's share was thus $350.[33]Jobs began attending meetings of the Homebrew Computer Club with Wozniak in 1975.[2] He greatly admired Edwin H. Land, the inventor of instant photography and founder ofPolaroid Corporation, and explicitly modeled his career after him.[34][35]CareerApple ComputerSee also: History of AppleIn 1976, Jobs, Steve Wozniak and Ronald Wayne founded Apple,[36]with later funding from a then-semi-retired Intel product-marketing manager and engineer A.C. "Mike" Markkula, Jr.[37] Prior to co-founding Apple, Wozniak was an electronics hacker. Jobs and Wozniak met in 1971, when their mutual friend, Bill Fernandez, introduced 21-year-old Wozniak to 16-year-old Jobs. Friends for several years, Jobs managed to interest Wozniak in assembling a computer and selling it.[38] As Apple continued to expand, the company began looking for an experienced executive to help manage its expansion.In 1978, Apple recruited Mike Scott from National Semiconductor to serve as CEO for what turned out to be several turbulent years. In 1983, Jobs lured John Sculley away from Pepsi-Cola to serve as Apple's CEO, asking, "Do you want to sell sugar water for the rest of your life, or do you want to come with me and change the world?"[39] Apple president Mike Markkula also wanted to retire and believed that Jobs lacked the discipline and temperament needed to run Apple on a daily basis and that Sculley's conventional business background and recent successes would give a more favorable image.[citation needed]In the early 1980s, Jobs was among the first to see the commercial potential of Xerox PARC's mouse-driven graphical user interface, which led to the creation of the Apple Lisaand, one year later, the Macintosh.[40][41]The following year, Apple aired a Super Bowl television commercial titled "1984". At Apple's annual shareholders meeting on January 24, 1984, an emotional Jobs introduced the Macintosh to a wildly enthusiastic audience; Andy Hertzfeld described the scene as "pandemonium".[42]The Macintosh became the first commercially successful small computer with a graphical user interface.While Jobs was a persuasive and charismatic director for Apple, some of his employees from that time described him as an erratic and temperamental manager. An industry-wide sales slump towards the end of 1984, caused a deterioration in Jobs' working relationship with Sculley as well as layoffs and disappointing sales performance. An internal power struggle developed between Jobs and Sculley.[43]Jobs kept meetings running past midnight, sent out lengthy faxes, then called new meetings at 7:00 am.[44]The Apple board of directors instructed Sculley to "contain" Jobs and limit his ability to launch expensive forays into untested products.[citation needed] Sculley learned that Jobs —believing Sculley to be "bad for Apple" and the wrong person to lead the company — had been attempting to organize a boardroom coup,[43] and on May 24, 1985[43] he called a board meeting to resolve the matter. Apple's board of directors sided with Sculley and removed Jobs from his managerial duties as head of the Macintosh division.[45][46] Jobs resigned from Apple five months later[43] and founded NeXT Inc. the same year.[44][47] Jobs later claimed that being fired from Apple was the best thing that could have happened to him; "The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness ofbeing a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life."[28][48][49]NeXT ComputerAfter leaving Apple, Jobs founded NeXT Computer in 1985, with $7 million. A year later, Jobs was running out of money, and with no product on the horizon, he appealed for venture capital. Eventually, he attracted the attention of billionaire Ross Perot who invested heavily in the company.[50] NeXT workstations were first released in 1990, priced at $9,999. Like the Apple Lisa, the NeXT workstation was technologically advanced, but was largely dismissed as cost-prohibitive by the educational sector for which it was designed.[51] The NeXT workstation was known for its technical strengths, chief among them its object-oriented software development system. Jobs marketed NeXT products to the financial, scientific, and academic community, highlighting its innovative, experimental new technologies, such as the Mach kernel, the digital signal processor chip, and the built-in Ethernet port.The revised, second-generation NeXTcube was released in 1990, also. Jobs touted it as the first "interpersonal" computer that would replace the personal computer. With its innovative NeXTMail multimedia email system, NeXTcube could share voice, image, graphics, and video in email for the first time. "Interpersonal computing is going to revolutionise human communications and groupwork", Jobs told reporters.[52]Jobs ran NeXT with an obsession for aesthetic perfection, as evidenced by the development of and attention to NeXTcube's magnesium case.[53]This put considerable strain on NeXT's hardware division, and in 1993, after having sold only 50,000 machines, NeXTtransitioned fully to software development with the release of NeXTSTEP/Intel.[54]The company reported its first profit of $1.03 million in 1994.[50] In 1996, NeXT Software, Inc. released WebObjects, a framework for Web application development. After NeXT was acquired by Apple Inc. in 1997, WebObjects was used to build and run the Apple Store,[54]MobileMe services, and the iTunes Store.Pixar and DisneyIn 1986, Jobs bought The Graphics Group (later renamed Pixar) from Lucasfilm's computer graphics division for the price of $10 million, $5 million of which was given to the company as capital.[55]The new company, which was originally based at Lucasfilm's Kerner Studios in San Rafael, California, but has since relocated to Emeryville, was initially intended to be a high-end graphics hardware developer. After years of unprofitability selling the Pixar Image Computer, it contracted with Disney to produce a number of computer-animated feature films that Disney would co-finance and distribute.[citation needed]The first film produced by the partnership, Toy Story, with Jobs credited as executive producer,[56] brought fame and critical acclaim to the studio when it was released in 1995. Over the next 15 years, under Pixar's creative chief John Lasseter, the company produced box-office hits A Bug's Life(1998); Toy Story 2 (1999); Monsters, Inc. (2001); Finding Nemo (2003); The Incredibles (2004); Cars (2006); Ratatouille (2007); WALL-E (2008); Up(2009); and Toy Story 3 (2010). Finding Nemo, The Incredibles, Ratatouille, WALL-E, Up and Toy Story 3each received the Academy Award for Best AnimatedFeature, an award introduced in 2001.In the years 2003, and 2004, as Pixar's contract with Disney was running out, Jobs and Disney chief executive Michael Eisner tried but failed to negotiate a new partnership,[58] and in early 2004, Jobs announced that Pixar would seek a new partner to distribute its films after its contract with Disney expired.In October 2005, Bob Iger replaced Eisner at Disney, and Iger quickly worked to patch up relations with Jobs and Pixar. On January 24, 2006, Jobs and Iger announced that Disney had agreed to purchase Pixar in an all-stock transaction worth $7.4 billion. When the deal closed, Jobs became The Walt Disney Company's largest single shareholder with approximately seven percent of the company's stock.[9]Jobs' holdings in Disney far exceed those of Eisner, who holds 1.7 percent, and of Disney family member Roy E. Disney, who until his 2009 death held about one percent of the company's stock and whose criticisms of Eisner — especially that he soured Disney's relationship with Pixar —accelerated Eisner's ousting. Jobs joined the company's board of directors upon completion of the merger. Jobs also helped oversee Disney and Pixar's combined animation businesses with a seat on a special six person steering committee.[Return to AppleIn 1996, Apple announced that it would buy NeXT for $429 million. The deal was finalized in late 1996,[59] bringing Jobs back to the company he co-founded. Jobs became de facto chief after then-CEO Gil Amelio was ousted in July 1997. He was formally named interim chief executive in September.[60]In March 1998, to concentrate Apple's efforts onreturning to profitability, Jobs terminated a number of projects, such as Newton, Cyberdog, and OpenDoc. In the coming months, many employees developed a fear of encountering Jobs while riding in the elevator, "afraid that they might not have a job when the doors opened. The reality was that Jobs' summary executions were rare, but a handful of victims was enough to terrorize a whole company."[61] Jobs also changed the licensing program for Macintosh clones, making it too costly for the manufacturers to continue making machines.With the purchase of NeXT, much of the company's technology found its way into Apple products, most notably NeXTSTEP, which evolved into Mac OS X. Under Jobs' guidance the company increased sales significantly with the introduction of the iMac and other new products; since then, appealing designs and powerful branding have worked well for Apple. At the 2000 Macworld Expo, Jobs officially dropped the "interim" modifier from his title at Apple and became permanent CEO.[62] Jobs quipped at the time that he would be using the title 'iCEO.'[63]The company subsequently branched out, introducing and improving upon other digital appliances. With the introduction of the iPod portable music player, iTunes digital music software, and the iTunes Store, the company made forays into consumer electronics and music distribution. On June 29, 2007, Apple entered the cellular phone business with the introduction of the iPhone, a multi-touch display cell phone, which also included the features of an iPod and, with its own mobile browser, revolutionized the mobile browsing scene. While stimulating innovation, Jobs also reminded his employees that "real artists ship".Jobs was both admired and criticized for his consummate skill at persuasion and salesmanship, which has been dubbed the "reality distortion field" and was particularly evident during his keynote speeches (colloquially known as "Stevenotes") at Macworld Expos and at Apple Worldwide Developers Conferences. In 2005, Jobs responded to criticism of Apple's poor recycling programs for e-waste in the U.S. by lashing out at environmental and other advocates at Apple's Annual Meeting in Cupertino in April. A few weeks later, Apple announced it would take back iPods for free at its retail stores. The Computer TakeBack Campaign responded by flying a banner from a plane over the Stanford University graduation at which Jobs was the commencement speaker.[28]The banner read "Steve — Don't be a mini-player recycle all e-waste".In 2006, he further expanded Apple's recycling programs to any U.S. customer who buys a new Mac. This program includes shipping and "environmentally friendly disposal" of their old systems.ResignationIn August 2011, Jobs resigned as CEO of Apple, but remained at the company as chairman of the company's board.[66][67] Hours after the announcement, Apple Inc. (AAPL) shares dropped five percent in after-hour trading.[68]The relatively small drop, when considering the importance of Jobs to Apple, was associated with the fact that Jobs' health had been in the news for several years, and he was on medical leave since January 2011.[69] It was believed, according to Forbes, that the impact would be felt in a negative way beyond Apple, including at The Walt Disney Company where Jobs served as director.[70] In after-hour trading on the day of the announcement, Walt Disney Co. (DIS)shares dropped 1.5 percent.[71]Business lifeWealthJobs earned only $1 a year as CEO of Apple,[72] but held 5.426 million Apple shares, as well as 138 million shares in Disney (which he received in exchange for Disney's acquisition of Pixar).[73] Jobs quipped that the $1 per annum he was paid by Apple was based on attending one meeting for 50 cents while the other 50 cents was based on his performance.[74]Forbes estimated his net wealth at $8.3 billion in 2010, making him the 42nd wealthiest American.[75]Stock options backdating issueIn 2001, Jobs was granted stock options in the amount of 7.5 million shares of Apple with an exercise price of $18.30. It was alleged that the options had been backdated, and that the exercise price should have been $21.10. It was further alleged that Jobs had thereby incurred taxable income of $20,000,000 that he did not report, and that Apple overstated its earnings by that same amount. As a result, Jobs potentially faced a number of criminal charges and civil penalties. The case is the subject of active criminal and civil government investigations,[76]though an independent internal Apple investigation completed on December 29, 2006, found that Jobs was unaware of these issues and that the options granted to him were returned without being exercised in 2003.[77]On July 1, 2008, a $7 billion class action suit was filed against several members of the Apple Board of Directors for revenue lost due to the alleged securities fraud.[78][79]Management styleJobs was a demanding perfectionist[80][81][82]who always aspired to position his businesses and their products at the forefront of the information technology industry by foreseeing and setting trends, at least in innovation and style.He summed up that self-concept at the end of his keynote speech at the Macworld Conference and Expo in January 2007, by quoting ice hockey player Wayne Gretzky: There's an old Wayne Gretzky quote that I love. 'I skate to where the puck is going to be, not where it has been.' And we've always tried to do that at Apple. Since the very very beginning. And we always will.[83]Much was made of Jobs' aggressive and demanding personality. Fortune wrote that he was "considered one of Silicon Valley's leading egomaniacs".[84]Commentaries on his temperamental style can be found in Michael Moritz's The Little Kingdom,The Second Coming of Steve Jobs, by Alan Deutschman; and iCon: Steve Jobs, by Jeffrey S. Young & William L. Simon. In 1993, Jobs made Fortune's list of America's Toughest Bosses in regard to his leadership of NeXT.Cofounder Dan'l Lewin was quoted in Fortune as saying of that period, "The highs were unbelievable ... But the lows were unimaginable", to which Jobs' office replied that his personality had changed since then.[85]In 2005, Jobs banned all books published by John Wiley & Sons from Apple Stores in response to their publishing an unauthorized biography, iCon: Steve Jobs.[86] In its 2010 annual earnings report, Wiley said it had "closed a deal ... to make its titles available forthe iPad."[87]Jef Raskin, a former colleague, once said that Jobs "would have made an excellent king of France", alluding to Jobs' compelling and larger-than-life persona.[88] Floyd Norman said that at Pixar, Jobs was a "mature, mellow individual" and never interfered with the creative process of the filmmakers.[89]Jobs had a public war of words with Dell Computer CEO Michael Dell, starting[when?] when Jobs first criticized Dell for making "un-innovative beige boxes".[90] On October 6, 1997, in a Gartner Symposium, when Michael Dell was asked what he would do if he owned then-troubled Apple Computer, he said "I'd shut it down and give the money back to the shareholders."[91]In 2006, Jobs sent an email to all employees when Apple's market capitalization rose above Dell's. The email read:Team, it turned out that Michael Dell wasn't perfect at predicting the future. Based on today's stock market close, Apple is worth more than Dell. Stocks go up and down, and things may be different tomorrow, but I thought it was worth a moment of reflection today. Steve.[92]InventionsAs of October 9, 2011, Jobs is listed as either primary inventor or co-inventor in 342 United States patents or patent applications related to a range of technologies from actual computer and portable devices to user interfaces (including touch-based), speakers, keyboards, power adapters, staircases, clasps, sleeves, lanyards and packages.[93][94] PhilanthropyArik Hesseldahl of BusinessWeek magazine stated that "Jobs isn't widely known for hisassociation with philanthropic causes", compared to Bill Gates' efforts.[95]Jobs said he does charitable acts privately.[96] After resuming control of Apple in 1997, Jobs eliminated all corporate philanthropy programs initially.[6]Later, under Jobs, Apple signed to participate in Product Red program, producing red versions of devices to give profits from sales to charity. Apple became the single largest contributor since then. The chief of the Product Red project, singer Bono, cited Jobs saying there was "nothing better than the chance to save lives," when he initially approached Apple with the invitation to participate in the program.[97]Personal lifeJobs married Laurene Powell on March 18, 1991. Presiding over the wedding was the Zen Buddhist monk Kobun Chino Otogawa.[6] The couple had a son and two daughters.[98] Jobs also had a daughter, Lisa Brennan-Jobs (born 1978), from his relationship with Bay Area painter Chrisann Brennan.[6] For two years, she raised their daughter on welfare while Jobs denied paternity by claiming he was sterile; he later acknowledged Lisa as his daughter.In the unauthorized biography, The Second Coming of Steve Jobs,author Alan Deutschman reports that Jobs once dated Joan Baez. Deutschman quotes Elizabeth Holmes, a friend of Jobs from his time at Reed College, as saying she "believed that Steve became the lover of Joan Baez in large measure because Baez had been the lover of Bob Dylan" (Dylan was the Apple icon's favorite musician). The biography also notes that Jobs went out with actress Diane Keaton briefly.[citation needed] In another unauthorizedbiography, iCon: Steve Jobs by Jeffrey S. Young & William L. Simon, the authors suggest that Jobs might have married Baez, but her age at the time (41) meant it was unlikely the couple could have children.Jobs was also a fan of The Beatles. He referred to them on multiple occasions at Keynotes and also was interviewed on a showing of a Paul McCartney concert. When asked about his business model on 60 Minutes, he replied:My model for business is The Beatles: They were four guys that kept each other's negative tendencies in check; they balanced each other. And the total was greater than the sum of the parts. Great things in business are never done by one person, they are done by a team of people.[99]In 1982, Jobs bought an apartment in The San Remo, an apartment building in New York City with a politically progressive reputation, where Demi Moore, Steven Spielberg, Steve Martin, and Princess Yasmin Aga Khan, daughter of Rita Hayworth, also had apartments. With the help of I.M. Pei, Jobs spent years renovating his apartment in the top two floors of the building's north tower, only to sell it almost two decades later to U2 singer Bono. Jobs never moved in.[100][101]In 1984, Jobs purchased the Jackling House, a 17,000-square-foot (1,600 m2), 14-bedroom Spanish Colonial mansion designed by George Washington Smith in Woodside, California. Although it reportedly remained in an almost unfurnished state, Jobs lived in the mansion for almost ten years. According to reports, he kept a 1966 BMW R60/2 motorcycle in the living room, and let Bill Clinton use it in 1998. From the early1990s, Jobs lived in a house in the Old Palo Alto neighborhood of Palo Alto. President Clinton dined with Jobs and 14 Silicon Valley CEOs there on August 7, 1996, at a meal catered by Greens Restaurant.[102][103]Clinton returned the favor and Jobs, who was a Democratic donor, slept in the Lincoln bedroom of the White House.[104]Jobs allowed Jackling House to fall into a state of disrepair, planning to demolish the house and build a smaller home on the property; but he met with complaints from local preservationists over his plans. In June 2004, the Woodside Town Council gave Jobs approval to demolish the mansion, on the condition that he advertise the property for a year to see if someone would move it to another location and restore it. A number of people expressed interest, including several with experience in restoring old property, but no agreements to that effect were reached. Later that same year, a local preservationist group began seeking legal action to prevent demolition. In January 2007, Jobs was denied the right to demolish the property, by a court decision.[105] The court decision was overturned on appeal in March 2010, and the mansion was demolished beginning February 2011.[106]Jobs usually wore a black long-sleeved mock turtleneck made by Issey Miyake (that was sometimes reported to be made by St. Croix), Levi's 501 blue jeans, and New Balance 991sneakers.[107][108] He was a pescetarian.[109]His car was a silver 2008 Mercedes SL 55 AMG, which does not display its license plates.[110][111]Health issues。

史蒂夫乔布斯英文简介Steve Jobs' English introduction_英语美文

史蒂夫乔布斯英文简介Steve Jobs’English introduction_英语美文Nobody else in the computer industry, or any other industry for that matter, could put on a show like Steve Jobs. His product launches, at which he would stand alone on a black stage and conjure up a “magical” or “incredible” new electronic gadget in front of an awed crowd, were the performances of a master showman. All computers do is fetch and shuffle numbers, he once explained, but do it fast enough and “the results appear to be magic”. He spent his li fe packaging that magic into elegantly designed, easy to use products.到目前为止,世界上还没有哪个计算机行业或者其他任何行业的领袖能够像乔布斯那样举办出一场万众瞩目的盛会。

在每次苹果推出新产品之时,乔布斯总是会独自站在黑色的舞台上,向充满敬仰之情的观众展示出又一款“充满魔力”而又“不可思议”的创新电子产品来,他的发布方式充满了表演的天赋。

计算机所做的无非是计算,但是经过他的解释和展示,高速的计算就“仿佛拥有了无限的魔力”。

乔布斯终其一生都在将他的魔力包装到了设计精美、使用简便的产品当中去。

He had been among the first, back in the 1970s, to see the potential that lay in the idea of selling computers to ordinary people. In those days of green-on-black displays, whenfloppy discs were still floppy, the notion that computers might soon become ubiquitous seemed fanciful. But Mr Jobs was one of a handful of pioneers who saw what was coming. Crucially, he also had an unusual knack for looking at computers from the outside, as a user, not just from the inside, as an engineer—something he attributed to the experiences of his wayward youth.乔布斯早在20世纪70年代便已经看到了向普通大众出售计算机这块业务的潜力。

StevenJobs三个故事

StevenJobs三个故事

2.Jobs and his three stories发布时间:2012-06-04文章出自:译言原文链接:点击查看(1)On a warm June day in 2005, Steve Jobs went to his first college graduation – as the commencement speaker. The billionaire founder and leader of Apple Computer was more than just a businessman. Though only fifty years old, the college dropout was a technology rock star, a living legend to millions of people around the world.(2)In his early twenties, Jobs almost single-handedly introduced the world to the first computer that could sit on your desk and do something all by itself. He revolutionized the way people listened to music with a fashionable little music player called the iPod. He started a new company called Pixar that made the most amazing computer-animated movies – Toy Story, Cars, and Finding Nemo. Already in development on that June day, were his greatest technological achievements – the iPhone and the iPad. The father of four would be repeatedly compared with othet inventors in history who introduced affordable, life-changing conveniences that transformed the way Americans lived.(3)Yet for all his successes, Jobs also endured some very public failures. When he was thirty years old, he was fired from Apple for being too difficult to work with. He could get angry quickly, screaming at co-workers, competitors, and reporters. He sometimes cried when things didn’t go his way and he regularly took credit for the ideas of others. He could be both charming and irritating, sensitive and cruel. He was both loved and hated, intensely admired and widely dismissed. People described him with the strongest words: visionary, showman, artist, bully, genius, jerk.(4)Wearing blue jeans and sandals under his graduation-day robe, Jobs stepped up to the microphone to speak in the same way he did just about everything: with intensity and passion.(5) “Today I want to tell you three stories from my life, ” he said.(6) “The first story is about connecting the dots. I dropped out of ReedCollegeafter the first 6 months. That allowed me to take the classes I wanted. I decided to take a calligraphy class. Ten years later, it all came back to me and we designed it all into the Mac. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on that calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderfully-shaped letters that you see on the screen. You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your instincts, destiny, life, whatever.”(7) “My second story is about love and loss. I got fired. During the next five years, I starteda company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the world’s firstcomputer-animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. Then, Apple bought NeXT, and I returned to Apple. The technology developed at NeXT was put into the iPod and future Apple products. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together. I’m pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn’t been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. You’ve got to find what you love. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.”(8) “My third story is about death. My doctors told me I had cancer. No one wants to die. And yet death is the destination we all share. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. When I was young,there was an amazing magazine. On the back cover of their final issue were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish”. And I have always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.”(9)No more. They were just three simple stories that defined an amazing life and provideda guide for people at the beginning of their adult lives. To understand who Steve Jobs was and what he became, it is necessary to hear those three simple stories, again and again.2. 乔布斯和他的三个故事发布时间:2012-06-04文章出自:译言原文链接:点击查看在二零零五年六月一个温暖的日子里,史蒂夫.乔布斯第一次出席了大学毕业典礼,以毕业典礼致辞人的身份。

或许表达了人们对史蒂夫-乔布斯最深切的肯定:
三个苹果改变了世界。 第一个诱惑了夏娃, 第二个砸醒了牛顿, 第三个曾被史蒂夫-乔布斯的掌握。
苹果公司成立初期,“苹果“机的生意清淡。 1976 年 7 月,一个偶然的机遇给“苹果“公司带来了转机。零售 商保罗· 特雷尔(Paul Jay Terrell)来到了乔布斯的车库 ,当看完乔布斯演示完电脑后,决定订购50台整机,这 是做成的第一笔生意。 之后“苹果“公司开始了小批量生产。1976年10月,马 尔库拉前来拜访沃兹和他们的车库工场。马尔库拉是位 电气工程师,擅长推销工作,他主动帮助他们制定一份 商业计划,给他们贷款69万美元,有了这笔资金,“苹 果“公司的发展速度大大加快了。 1977 年 4 月,乔布斯在美国第一次计算机展览会展示了 苹果Ⅱ号样机。 1980年12月12日,苹果公司股票公开上市,在不到一个 小时内, 460 万股全被抢购一空,当日以每股 29 美元收 市。按这个收盘价计算,苹果公司高层产生了4名亿万富 翁和40名以上的百万富翁。乔布斯作为公司创办人排名 第一。 1983年,Lisa数据库和Apple Iie发布,售价分别为9998 美元和1395 美元。但是 Lisa 的昂贵的售价是没有多少市 场的,而Lisa又侵吞了Apple大量研发经费。

Known for his visionary leadership, innovative products, and charismatic personality, Jobs revolutionized the way we interact with technology and changed the world forever.Born on February 24, 1955 in San Francisco, California, Steve Jobs was adopted shortly after birth by Paul and Clara Jobs. He grew up in Mountain View, a suburb of San Francisco, where he developed an early interest in electronics and technology. Jobs attended Reed College in Portland, Oregon, but dropped out after just one semester to pursue his passion for computers.In 1976, Jobs co-founded Apple Inc. with his friend Steve Wozniak in his parents' garage.

This was followed by a series of hit products, including the iPod, iTunes, and the iPhone, which solidified Apple's position as a leader in the tech industry.Unfortunately, Jobs' health began to decline in the late 2000s, and in 2004 he was diagnosed with a rare form of pancreatic cancer. Despite undergoing surgery and treatment, Jobs' health continued to deteriorate, and he took several leaves of absence from Apple to focus on his health. In August 2011, Jobs resigned as CEO, passing the reins to Tim Cook, his longtime deputy.On October 5, 2011, Steve Jobs passed away at the age of 56, leaving behind a legacy that will endure for generations to come.
