a financial article for business students such as Harvard? I think it is because of technology that the high-tech industry in the United States developed greatly around 2000, so it
can be presented as a class of samples!
Yes, Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, both of them are bigwigs in the global IT industry, and because they are the richest man in the United States and the most creative in the United States, they
have attracted much attention so far!
This film, filmed in 1999, certainly did not see Microsoft under the leadership of a computer prodigy from Harvard University. After entering the 21st century, its system software has made great
strides. In 2011, the market share of the computer operating system was as high as 44%. Products Windows and Office can be described as world-renowned!
And what about APPLE? In the past two years, in the era of tablet PCs and smartphones, Microsoft and Intel's dominance in the IT market will be severely eroded.
In 2012, U.S. analysts generally believed that the influence of the
Wintel .
Let's take a look at the "Global Operating System Market Share" for January 2013:
Clearly, as an operating system, Microsoft has the upper hand!
On the other hand, in terms of overall hardware sales, what does Microsoft obviously have other than game consoles and its weakly influential tablets? So it can't compete with apples!
Overall, they are a duo in "leading the world to the future of speed"!
Bill Gates and Steve Jobs:
Both are geniuses born in 1955. This film roughly depicts the early 1970s, when the two were in school while creating their own and more future
IT world!
But Jobs may be because of the school spirit of Reed College in Portland, Oregon. The spirit of freedom is too rich, although he dropped out of school for
financial !
Microsoft's side consists of Bill Gates (Anthony Michael Hall), his high school friend Steve
Balmore (John Di Maggio), Paul Allen (Josh Hopkins) is the main;
Apple's side is dominated by Steve Jobs (Noah Wyle) and Steve Woznick (Joey Slonick). Slotnick)
;
Jobs became the cover of Time Magazine in 1997; in the same year, he was named the most successful manager and was a well-known "computer madman".
Gates, from 1995 to 2007, was the world's richest man for 13 consecutive years in the "Forbes" list of the world's billionaires.
You say, who will beat whom?
In the film, Steve Jobs returned to Apple, and at the annual new product launch conference, he had a remote dialogue with Gates, and started a description of historical grievances!
(In 1985, Jobs left Apple during a power struggle at the top of Apple and established NeXT, targeting the professional market.
In 1997, Apple acquired NeXT, and Jobs returned to Apple to take over as chief executive officer (CEO).)
In the entrepreneurial stage, Jobs and Steve Wozniak thought about computers in his small garage and successfully
assembled the first Motorola 6502 microprocessor, PC with keyboard and video display in 1976 - "Apple I"!
The success came in April 1977, when America's first-ever computer exhibition opened on the West Coast. In order to make a name for himself at the fair,
Jobs traveled around and spent huge sums of money to get the biggest and best booths at the fair. What is more striking is of course the prototype of Apple II, which changed the image of
personal computers that were heavy and bulky, complicated in design and difficult to operate.
captured the hearts of the audience. It weighs only 12 pounds, uses only 10 screws to assemble, and has a nice plastic case that looks like a beautiful typewriter. People
can't believe that this little machine can continuously display spectacular, kaleidoscope-like colors on a large screen. The "Apple II" machine was
a blockbuster at the exhibition. Thousands of users flocked to the booth to watch, Try it out, orders are pouring in.
Looking at Gates again, he didn't play the garage economy. While at Harvard, Gates developed
a . The Microsoft company founded in 1975 has become a billionaire at the age of 31. The basis of his wealth is that he is very good at buying,
processing and selling!
●In 1980, a 24-year-old programmer at Seattle Computer Products, Tim
Paterson, spent four months writing the 86-DOS operating system. In July 1981, Microsoft
purchased and renamed it MS-DOS. Subsequently, IBM released the first personal computer, the operating system used at the time was the
Seattle company's 86-DOS 1.14, but Microsoft quickly improved MS-DOS and made it successfully used as the operating system for the IBM PC. After the establishment of
Microsoft "Microsoft (then called Micro-Soft)", it was named MSDOS operating system
Graphical interface operating system
In 1980, the veteran graphics workstation - three rivers computer corporation launched perq graphics workstation; July 1981 alto's Commercial
version --star system; xerox launched the star system, which is the commercial version of alto. Features: Double-click icon technology, multiple windows, dialog concept, 1024
×768 resolution.
Although in April 1973 the first operational alto computer was completed at xerox parc. alto was the first
graphical . It uses a 3-button mouse, a bit-manipulating display, a graphics window, and an Ethernet network connection. But the real practicality is from 1981!
At that time, Microsoft and Apple were optimistic about the interface, so they set foot in one after another!
In January 1983, Apple (apple)--lisa system, the first ibm pc graphics software environment in 1983--visi on, and
the windows program designed by Microsoft for ibm pc in 1983.
Therefore, the description in the film is to insinuate that Gates led the team to Apple, and finally improved his own window through the
unreleased A very realistic reenactment of what happened in the 1980s."
In short, this is the wheel of the times. There will always be a group of boys who appear out of nowhere and change the world. Where the past is often military and political genius, the modern age
may give way to tech and investment people! Of course, the premise we may have to assume is still in the United States!
However, people who want to start a business and get rich or get rich overnight should also remember that Jobs and Gates have said that "good artists copy, great artists
steal ". Come to think of it, everyone is familiar with Tencent's plagiarism!
