Apple
One of the world’s greatest computer empires had started from a home garage back in April 1, 1976, with only three people.

Today it’s innovation has forced down technology industry to follow.

NeXT Computer
When Steve Jobs left Apple in 1985, he had created his own computer empire to show Apple that he can live without the company that ditched him. As founder and CEO of NeXT, he was able to create a computer line in 1988 and a smaller version in 1990. When Jobs came back to Apple, he purchased NeXT in December 1996 for $429 million, for the sake of expanding the OSX line with NeXT’s OpenStep system.

The iPod has been designed as an inspiration for those people who cannot live without their bulky walkman or CD player. As he was included in the same commune of people & was tired of throwing his dead walkman’s soon after it’s short use.
