Apple founder Steve Jobs introduces the Apple II in 1977, the first computer with a keyboard and color screen.
Jobs, left, unveils the Apple IIc computer with Apple Chief Executive John Sculley and co-founder Steve Wozniak. Jobs and Wozniak met when Jobs was in high school in Cupertino, Calif., and Wozniak was intermittently attending college. The two partnered up to make and sell machines that let users make free international phone calls. In 1976, they founded Apple in a Los Altos, Calif., garage.
Jobs presents his NExT workstation in San Francisco. After a long power struggle at Apple, he had resigned in 1985, at age 30, and started Next Computing. He also bought part of Lucasfilm and renamed it Pixar.
Jobs shows off his NeXTstation color computer at his company's Redwood City, Calif., facility in 1991. The same year, he and his wife, Laurene Powell, were married at Yosemite National Park by a Buddhist monk.
The industry was shocked when Jobs announced that the struggling Apple had forged an alliance with its sworn enemy, Microsoft. At the 1997 Macworld Expo trade show, Microsoft Chief Executive Bill Gates chimes in via satellite.
Jobs holds up the new iPod, showing an episode of hit television show "Desperate Housewives." Apple Computer Inc.'s momentum in 2005 seemed unstoppable as it launched one hit product after another: the iPod Shuffle, the Mac Mini, the iPod Nano, a video-playing iPod and TV shows for sale on its iTunes store.
