I found myself cheering both Jobs and Gates at different times throughout the film. All in all, a superb bit of acting on the part of Noah Wiley (Steve Jobs) and Anthony Michael Hall (Bill Gates).
Steve Jobs was born on 1955 in San Francisco, California. He was adopted at birth by Paul and Clara Jobs, who Steve later referred to as his 'parents 1,000%'. During high school, he met Steve Wozniak, who would become his partner and co-founder at Apple. Although he initially enrolled at the expensive Reed College, Jobs eventually dropped out and started taking random courses while sleeping at friends dorm rooms. During this time, Jobs also traveled to India, began practicing Buddhism, and experimented with LSD. In 1976, Jobs and Wozniak founded Apple Computer Company, to sell their first product: the Apple I, hand-built by Wozniak.
The popularity of the computer was such, that it propelled Apple into success and made millionaires of Jobs and Wozniak. Apple continued its groundbreaking pace, designing one of the first graphical user interfaces in the Apple Lisa, and following it with one of the most successful personal computers ever, the Macintosh. However, despite the success of the company, personal issues with Jobs and his clashes with the Board of Directors, led by John Sculley, ended up with Jobs being pushed out of his own company. After that, he embarked in other ventures like founding a computer company called NeXT, and buying Pixar, among other things.
Meanwhile, during Jobs's absence from the company, Apple began to decline and sunk into near bankruptcy. In 1996, Apple 'bought' NeXT, paving the way for Jobs return to the company. Eventually, he found his way back to the CEO chair, while announcing a joint venture with perennial rival Microsoft. As part of his restructuring process, Jobs terminated a number of failed projects and launched some new ones. With the release of Mac OS X and the new iMac, Apple returned into its former relevance in the computer world. Meanwhile, Jobs led a variety of branching out efforts that ended up with the launch of the iPod, iTunes, the iPhone, the iPad, and back into mega-success. Bill Gates was born on 1955 in Seattle, Washington to a prominent family.
