Steve Jobs-A surprising success.

Nothing in the early years of Steve Job’s life suggested that he would be so successful. Born in San Francisco, the child of two students, he was adopted and grew up close to Silicon Valley. While at company-and he and his best friend Steve Wozniak got summer jobs there.

After finishing high school in 1972, Jobs studied at an expensive liberal arts college in Portland, Oregon but he dropped pout after one after one term. He grew his hair and a beard, slept on friends’ floors, and sometimes went to a Hare Krishna temple for free meals. Like many drop-outs at that Beatles-inspired time, his ambition was to visit a guru(古鲁[印度教的宗师或领袖])in India, which he eventually did with a friend. When they got there, the guru had died.

At this point, Jobs has a limited education, and no obvious talents, apart from a notorious(臭名远扬)ability to talk. However, he did have a devoted friend who was an electronics genius. They were a great team. Without Jobs’ s ambition, high design standards, the ability to make deals and  great maketing skills-Wozniak might well have spent a quiet life designing hardware at HP.
