Steve Jobs President & CEO, NeXT Computer Corp and Apple. MIT Sloan Distinguished Speaker Series

Takes 5 years to create a commercial product thst takes advantage of the window to open up

Look nib

And then another 5 years tk elpoit it in the marketplace

It takes 5 years to make a product or thing and then another 5 years for that peoduct or thing to usually peak and have to move on to another sector if it starts slowing down

The prototypes should use the same technology as the finished product

Ship the prosuct early even if its bad, and on the way you will be able to change the product

Anyone knows the year this originally happened? Please

Why didn’t I ever see this :( at the time it was filmed in Silicon Valley. ? ) weird at that time I didn’t even know about computers. While I was growing up.

That tiny smile when he speaks in between his speech…… 😍

Omg that’s why iPhone has App Store , he want more products app . Smart 1991 until 2007 first iPhone really happens in the world, he waits for 16 years , I wish he still here 😢😊

Great lecture

he is like Jesus in 20th century

The people who invented and built early computers are a million times more important than this guy.

Flairy hair !! & heart beating faster ! 🙏🏽🎉

Sorry haha I’m not making it worse. !! ☺️🩷I promise

Not One cough, when he is talking. ❤

Yes!! Laughing again. ☺️

What a mind on that boy!

Brilliant and funny

All this went back in the mac.. when a ceo thinks like an engineer then you are in business.

This is a little silly because, by all accounts, he was a terrible manager at Apple, which is why he was fired, and NeXT was a failure. It wasn't until after he returned to Apple that he became a good executive. The biggest lesson is perfection in the enemy of good enough.

My heart is at ease again.

Operational Custom Applications was not the future of computing. in only 2 years from now he did an interview in 1994 where he talks about the internet. THAT was the future of computing. I wonder when and how he first discovered it.

Steve was a true charlatan. Anyway, the best thing that came from NeXT wasn't any of hardware but WebObjects later on.

Amazing analysis however, the software company response is outdated. AI is the answer to cheap software production nowadays.

A True Pirate

I listen to this video once in a while. Crazy how things go fast

I’ve studied Steve Jobs and all companies he was a part of at great lengths.. and many of the “Typical comments” or opinions of him and his work pain me, such as :
“Steve wasn’t an engineer, he couldn’t build anything” contrary to this popular belief, in all my research I’ve never saw Steve claim to be.. he was pretty knowledgeable though, even working as a Technician at Atari in his very early days. Not too long ago, there were some documents found from his time there working and improving on circuits. Expert level technician, no, I don’t think so from my research but still knowledgeable.

“NeXT was a failure” In my opinion it really wasn’t.. NeXT did have some profitable years.. without its advanced systems where so many things bloomed.. such as object oriented programming, the first web server was built on a next machine, etc etc.. the world we live in would probably look different without Next.. also, Next sold for nearly 500 million to apple along with I think 1.5 million shares of Apple stock to Steve.. the cash given to share holders and investors of Next..

“Steve was a bad manager”.. this one I’m on the fence about.. I never worked for him.. but I have worked at a fortune 50 company for nearly 20 years.. and sometimes being a good manager (one that truly cares about the success of their company) means pushing people really hard… and sometimes putting a bullet in the head of some projects..
