The film Pirates of Silicon Valley charts the history of the company Apple from its garage beginnings until 1985, when its founder was Steve Jobs fired and then founded a company NeXT Computer. In retrospect, I regret that I only looked at it in the last few days, because for Apple fans, the film clearly has a "must see" mark.
Pirates of Silicon Valley saw the light of day back in 1999, while the task of the film was to retell the history of companies Apple a Microsoft in a non-violent and entertaining way, which is why the film is classified as a "documentary". The film begins in the 70s and two storylines intersect: at the University of Berkeley, two friends Steve Jobs (Noah Wyle) and Steve Wozniak (Joey Slotnick) start a company in a garage Apple Computer and Harvard students at the same time Bill Gates (Anthony Michael Hall), Steve Ballmer (John Di Maggio) and Paul Allen (Josh Hopkins) found Microsoft. Gates, Jobs and Wozniak even drop out of school to pursue their dream of starting a business. This is nothing less than changing the computer world. The film ends with Steve Jobs being fired from Appin 1985.
Steve Jobs is portrayed in the film as a person who is capable of doing anything for success. According to the film, he forced Steve Jobs your employeesancto work two days in a row without a break and get busyancHe proudly bought T-shirts with the words: "I work 90 hours a week." Even though at the time he was Apple regarding absolute top and employmentancEven there they had very interesting earnings, not everyone had the stomach to endure constant psychological pressure and bullying.
Also think about where he would be today. Microsoft, if Bill Gates didn't convince Steve Jobs to let him work for Apple. At the time he had Apple owned a luxury mansion in Cupertino Microsoft tiny dirty kancdollars. Gates He only succeeded because he copied ideas. Applu and offered them at a much better price (and therefore more accessible to ordinary customers).

The author misleads and lies!
Again, as always, I encounter problems from Apple Fans! ..MS and you "God" tooApple they copied the attacks of the Xerox company.. that's in the movie! ..MS gained a dominant position thanks to IBM, not a moron Apple! ..and finally, where would he be Apple, if MS don't invest in times of failure!
PS: I own an MBP and an iPhone 4, so no - I don't hate apple.
You can see that the article was written by iOvečka, or Jan Bednarik is right ;-).
I know the history of both companies, but the film was really successful. Apple it is, but it's getting better and always will be... think different
This film is a very engagingly presented documentary. A must see for anyone interested in computers and IT in general.
