Steve Jobs $92.4 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles Steven Paul Steve Jobs, (born February 24, 1955) is an American business magnate and inventor. He is wellknown for being the cofounder and chief executive officer of Apple. Jobs also previously served as chief executive of Pixar Animation Studios; he became a member of the board of The Walt Disney Company in 2006, following the acquisition of Pixar by Disney. In the late 1970s, Jobs, with Apple cofounder 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 the mousedriven graphical user interface which led to the creation of the Macintosh. After losing a power struggle with the board of directors in 1985, Jobs resigned from Apple and founded NeXT, a computer platform development company specializing in the higher education and business markets. Apples subsequent 1996 buyout of NeXT brought Jobs back to the company he cofounded, and he has served as its CEO since 1997. Author: Surhone, Lambert M./ Timpledon, Miriam T./ Marseken, Susan F.
