“OS X” Apple wanted software to sync up digital devices Jobs took matters into his own hands and created
iLife suite. In 2001, Jobs opened Apple retail stores so
customers could: Try out computers
Test software Meet with salespeople
This was a large risk but he knew that peoplewould want to buy them
He took a greater risk, people loved the technology and the higher price fixed by Apple became
acceptable and resulted in success.
He created online music store iTunes for “OS X” which was the best official music store of the world.

Interesting Facts Apple may have never existed if Hewlett-Packard
had been on the ball. After developing the circuit board that would become the heart of the Apple
I, Steve Wozniak offered it to Hewlett-Packard, who turned it down saying that it wasn’t “a
salable product.” To generate the $1,350 in capital they used to
start Apple, Steve Jobs sold his Volkswagen microbus, and Steve Wozniak sold his Hewlett-
Packard calculator. In 1976, Steve Jobs was working in a community
type farm in Oregon and that inspired him to name the company Apple Computers
