My first resource

Linzmayer, O. W. (1999). Apple confidential: The real story of Apple Computer, Inc. San Francisco, Calif: No Starch Press.
This book was written by Owen W. Linzmayer. I use this book because it gives me so much confidential information about Apple Inc and Steve Jobs. First, from page 51 to 63: the information how great Xerox and Macintosh systems are. Second, from page 167 to 179: they give me information what did Steve do after he got fired from Apple Inc. I will use those information for my research.


Research Question

If i could be anyone in the world, I wanna be Steve Jobs. He is my favorite businessman and he has significantly affected in the world technology. Unfortunately, he got fired from the company he founded, Apple Inc. In my research, I will research to find out this decision from Apple board directors is a good or terrible decision. After i finish my research, it can answer 3 questions
1/ How did this decision affect the world technology?
2/ Was it good for Steve?
3/ Was it good for Apple Inc?
