HAVE A LOOK OF FIRST 10 EMPLOYEES OF APPLE




We all know about the heights that Apple has reached today, but not many of us know that even if Steve Jobs was the driving force behind Apple, there was a wonderful team of talented people to support him.This first 10 Apple employee list is prepared by Business Insider and the first Apple CEO Michael Scott. BI writes about the employee list, “The Apple employee numbers aren’t the order each person joined the company.” Actually, when the first Apple CEO Michael Scott came to the company, he gave out numbers to each employee to make the “life easier for the payroll department.” 



  1. Steve Wozniak- Technical Expert
Wozniak considered taking the job offer at HP in Oregon, as he was under the impression that Apple would crash someday. Later, he left Apple. However, these days he’s busy bashing Steve Jobs as the consultant to the new movie on Jobs’ life.



2.Steve Jobs

Apple’s first CEO Michael Scott, tells why he didn’t give number 1 position to him. He says, “I know I didn’t give it to Jobs because I thought that would be too much.”
In 1977, Jobs and Wozniak were successful in shipping their first computer, which was a naked circuit board called Apple. It didn’t have a keyboard or a screen. Whatever followed is now history.



3. Mike Markulla – The money man
 Mike Markulla was the venture capitalist who provided Apple’s first proper funding. He also installed real management. He made an investment in Apple worth $250,000, in exchange of which he took 30% shares of the company. He stayed at Apple until 1997 and left when Jobs came back. 



4. Bill Fernandez – First Employee Of Apple
Fernandez was also a neighbor and friend of Steve Wozniak. He stayed with Apple until 1993, after which he started working at Ingres, a database company.



5.Rod Holt- The Chief Scientist

Holt invented the switching power supply that allowed them to do a very lightweight computer compared to others who used transformers. Holt later joined Apple full time.Holt was the Chief Engineer and Vice President of Engineering during most the reign of the Apple II. From contributing to floppy disk, the switching power supply, and radio interference problems to receiving four patents for his work, Holt played a major role in Apple II.


6.Randy Wigginton

 In 1977, Wigginton collaborated with Wozniak on the circuit design and ROM software for the Apple II. Wigginton wrote machine language graphics subroutines and several early programs for the Apple II. 


7. Michael Scott – First CEO of Apple

 Michael Scott was the first CEO of Apple Computer from February 1977 to March 1981. He was the former director of manufacturing at National Semiconductor.
As Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, both were inexperienced for the post of CEO, hence Scott was persuaded for the post by Markkula.  Scott declared that there would be no typewriters at Apple.  Scott left Apple officially on July 10, 1981.



8. Chris Espinosa

In 1976, the 14-year-old Espinosa was only 14 years old when he began working for Apple, making him one of the company’s youngest employees.
 He began writing BASIC programs in Jobs’ garage, and has worked in a variety of different positions during his time at Apple- including Mac OS, A/UX, HyperCard etc. He has worked in Apple for his entire life.



9. Sherry Livingston – Right hand of Apple’s first CEO

She was the first secretary at Apple. She was hired by Michael Scott. In the early days, she did all the odds and ends work at Apple.


10. Gary Martin

After staying at Apple till 1983, Martin switched to Starstruck, which is a company working on space travel and kept moving from one CFO to another in different companies.

Little Known Facts About iPhones

BEST LOGIC COMPUTER EDUCATION    



 
rectangular cell phone we know today


The first iPhone was invented in 1983!

Naturally, this wasn’t anything like the rectangular cell phone we know today. It was a land line phone with, instead of a touch screen, a built in stylus controlled interface.

It was designed by Apple designer Hartmut Esslinger, and foreshadows the touchscreen designs used by the iPad and iPhone today. He had also developed the Apple IIc, the first “portable” computer by Apple. It was never released to the public, but was kept in the Apple archives until the design was released in 1997 after Steve Jobs rejoined the company. 


This iPhone isn’t the only prototype of Apple that never saw the light of day. Apple had toyed around with the iPad design for years before its launch. What’s interesting is that the 1983 iPhone device resembles an iPad with a phone, but iPads still lack this conventional phone call technology despite everything else they do. Perhaps the iPad appliance will enter that direction in its next iteration.
 
One third of U.S. High School students now have iPhones.

A recent semi-annual teenager survey by market research firm Piper Jaffray found that 34% of surveyed students now own an iPhone. This is an all time high, and double of what they saw last year. The reason for this, as explained by analyst Gene Munster is that the new low cost offerings by Apple have allowed many teens to get a phone. In even better news for Apple, 40% of the High School Students expressed their intent to buy an iPhone in the next 6 months, which is also at an all time high for the survey.

On a related note, 34% of students also said they had tablets. 70% of those are iPads. 19% of them said they would buy a tablet within 6 months, and 80% of those said it would be an iPad. Given most of our readers are in High School, let us know.


iPhones can survive falls of over 13,000 feet.

A skydiver lost his iPhone 4 in midair after jumping from 13,500 feet. Using a GPS tracking app, Jarrod McKinney was able to locate his runaway phone a half mile away on top of a building. Thankfully the phone landed on a building and not on a person’s head, or McKinney would be in a lot of trouble.

The screen was cracked, but not only was he able to track it down, he was also still able to answer incoming calls with it! McKinney must have been surprised by the device’s durability, especially since the same phone had previously cracked after falling a few feet off of a bathroom shelf.

All advertisements for the iPhone show a time of 9:42.

Believe it or not, there is actually a logical reason for this! Whenever Apple releases a new product, they like to have the big reveal occur 40 minutes into each presentation. Therefore, the images onscreen show a time of 9:40...plus a minute or two because Apple knows the lead-up will never take EXACTLY 40 minutes.

Unlike the iPhone, the iPad ads all show a time of 9:41.
