Steve Jobs

* Who is Steve Jobs?
  The founder of Apple and a "modern Einstein" of technology, especially with computers. He was an inventor too, before his death this year, Oct. 5th.

* What company was he CEO for many years?
  He was full CEO of Apple for 11 years, after he returned from being fired 1985. He incorporated the famous Pixar in 1986. CEO of NeXT since about 1985 and Apple bought the NeXT software and he merged the companies together.

* What did he do for the computer industry?
  Basically, he made better computers and faster software.

* How did this man impact the graphic design industry?
  Since he was one of the leading shareholders of Pixar, I'd say he was the king of graphic design. He made it better and more interesting and life like. Just go see Monsters Inc. and Toy Story!
