AN EVENT THAT CHANGED OUR LIVES

摘要

30 years ago this April, two guys who's names have become household words and one no one except his mother and father has ever heard of got together and started a venture that changed the world lived in by everyone who reads and works on this magazine. The three guys? Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs, and Ron Wayne. The Steves, with very different personalities, priorities and objectives have, by anyone's standards, achieved astounding success. As for Ron Wayne, who six days after Apple took an order for its first 50 "computers", sold his 10% interest in Apple for $800, it seems Mr. Wayne has no regrets, has moved on with his life and is happy that he made the right the decision based on the information available to him at the time. Given his original stake in Apple, if held until Apple's peak share price in 2000, would have been worth over $500 million, we have to say Ron Wayne is a man made of much stronger stuff than we!
