As this was captured from a satellite feed there's no clear way to hear the interviewer, I've done some noise reduction to make the room audio clearer to understand the audio bleed from whoever was asking the questions
He was 43 here. I like his little boy smile. And he oozed charisma. Wish he’d been smarter about his health.
This video can even sell you an iMac today!
I love to watch how deftly Steve dodges the interviewer's attempts to corner him, even though it isn't even clear to him for the first two minutes that the interview has formally begun.
If you ever wondered what it would be like to interview Steve for a position at your company, here's your POV.
What’s pov?

What a masterful response to the “not that revolutionary” question.
Such a fucking rock star. He didn’t even know it.
He did.
He knew it pretty well
oh he knew it
“Have we started yet? I thought we were just shooting the shit.” Low key flex 😂
What was he flexing ?
Definitely wasn't a flex. He didn't like the first two questions and wanted to restart the interview. The second question casted doubt on the answer to his first question. It was insulting to Steve. Clear as day.
You completely used "flex" out of context 😂😂
@digits001 Yes... It was totally a low key flex. These other folks commenting otherwise are a little behind 😉
@@SuperRedux flexing his conversation skills, even when he thinks hes not on air hes killing it in an interview/presentation
It became the highest selling computer in history. By the time you unboxed a windows machine and connect it physically, you already were browsing the internet on the iMac. Then you have start installing software on the windows machine to get it even load. This is what the iMac was ahead in. Today all computers work this way.
Not really. Windows 98 had built in apps. The difference was - and still is - that Windows is junk. You couldn’t pay me to use a Windows machine. Absolute garbage.
@@perttik6844 you are right. It’s my fault for not considering those computers as a computer. I was referring to the modern multi-tasking computer with mouse and multi media, internet and stuff like that.
I remember my school bought a few of these colourful Macs and then no students were allowed to use it😂 they were just decoration for the library
Wrong.
What happens to these machines is they got broken by students and then repair was too expensive so they were then used as decoration.
These computers were not fit for school use.. like at all lol.
ICON computers got more use than these things.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ICON_(microcomputer)
@@NopeSecret we got to use the older ones, the one with that game where you battle as a tank against other tanks are just outlines.
we also got to use the even older ones that were probably sold before we were born, it was a tiny screen with a floppy drive.
so anyway then we start highschool and told we're only allowed to use Netscape navigator and Alta Vista 😅
😂
Like how smart his responses are.
Correct, he was among the sharpest debaters and spin doctors of his era. Here he tries to ruin the broadcast by saying “shit” because he didn’t like the guy’s tone.
Planned and rehearsed call questions… enough said
@@Mortenthorpe-DK No steve was this sharp all the time. he was relentless and obsessed with working - overtime this transfers in your ability to be incredibly sharp.
Sign of great things to come.
Steve Jobs could sell me anything 😂
he's the type of guy that could sell dust
@@slob5041 he wouldn't even sell dust, feel like his selling abilities are tightly connected to his conviction of greatness of their products
He was so smooth with the media… so comfortable ❤
I hope that Steve Jobs is allright, the computerindustry can't do without him, kind regards
He is dead.
Bruh he died 12 years ago
I think you may need to turn updates back on
Is it just me or did Steve give Woody vibes with the plaid?
The new I-MAC made a huge impression on me. WHAT A UPBUILDING FROM A SCREEN.
the Flash-sticks or usb-memorysticks or pop-sockets are great. KIND REGARDS.
The fact that more Mac users were in businesses than homes says everything about computers in the 80's and 90's. They were originally business machines primarily. I would guess there are more Macs used at home than in offices today by a wide margin.
better mac marketing for business customers, that is all
@@fitnesspoint2006 My point was about how computers were mostly in offices, not home then. Nothing to do with Mac marketing vs. PC marketing.
Little known fact: Interviewer was calling in from the moon.
😂😂
I still miss those five and a quarter inch floppies
Right before The Turtleneck Years
my school growing up was spoiled, we only used iMacs and iBooks, and it made a huge impression on 10 y/o me
Does anyone know who the interviewer was? And what was Edelman Worldwide's role?
Incredible how technology changes ( flobby disk, zip to cloud data storage )
The media was very harsh that the iMac didn't include a floppy disk drive. How wrong they were...
Yea and thats where it ends for cloud storage users because all your data is being monetized. External hard drive will always be king perfect balance
Floppy*
Where did you even get this
It’s amazing when you contrast this to someone like Elon Musk who serially over promises and under delivers bordering on being a conman to someone like Steve Jobs who was constantly under promising and over delivering.
Getting to Mars (Starship) and developing self-driving cars that can go anywhere (not geofenced) are both more ambitious than anything Steve Jobs did (eg take already existing products and make them simpler and more attractive).
And he’s a done a grand total of neither of those
@@doubllechief6926 yes, but Steve Jobs and Apple just executed really well on things that were either already accomplished or were going to be accomplished pretty soon anyway.
@@paulhamrick3943 that's patently false and if you're saying that in defense of Elon you must not know his history very well
@@paulhamrick3943 the idea of a computer going into everyone’s home, and creating that paradigm, was just as ambitious I the 1970s. Going to Mars would have actually been thought possible during that timeframe, but computers for every day people was thought to be insane. The products from early Apple to the iPhone or iPad have completely changed humanity.
add captions smbdy for telephone guy
Lol
there are subs, thanks a lot to somebody
just turn on CC
Thx
For context when you're watching this, at this point apple was where blackberry is now.

He's still saying "Apple" and not "we" and "us".
USB 1.0 was painful lol
Hey black atkinson
الله يرحمك
Is he calling Steve on an iPod touch 🤮
Huh?
@@yoloswag6242 I'm assuming cause it's hard to hear him and the ipod touch was hard to hear?
Hard to believe that apple essentially created the pc market then gave it up and became a phone company
Apple didn't create the PC market. It was one of several companies that contributed to it.
Actually it was a computer with a phone app …
@PAGE looookkkkk just like me seeking zuckiii he was seeekng you
Such small minded and insulting questions
"What a bozo."

So when I was in middle school, every computer was an iMac. This was like in the late 90s. They were SO SLOW. I don't know if something was wrong with them or what, but they were just unbearably slow everyone. They switch to A core 2 duo pc with windows xp on it and it was SO much better. Idk, maybe they just purchased the slowest model.
SHIIIITTTTT I AMMM BEHAVIORAL LIKE HIM
Oh my God?........ #Cutecore #kawaiicore
These computers were awful. Even for surfing the web, they struggled.
5:52 the iMac din't have optical drive burner capabilities, so you where stuck with either very expensive and slow USB hard disks at the time, or really awful iTools online storage @ either 38k or 56k speeds if you were not lucky enough to be in a school or corporate network. Floppies allowed people to save their work simply. Not that this machine mattered at the end of the day.... People from all over the world where using regular computers because not many could afford these yet alone regular computers. This wasn't a people's computer as Steve imagined.
The USB hard drive were slower /as slow as floppy disks? I can’t remember to be honest.
@@wobuzhidaoification USB hard drives were much faster than floppy drives. Higher aerial density and USB 1.0 did 11 megabytes per second. A floppy only holds 1.4 megabytes and took minutes to fill, so thats how you know that it was slower. By 2000, the iMac had 400 MB/s Firewire.
It created a market for usb accessories. Everyone needed floppy drive and usb floppy drives created that
@@blackrockcity exactly. So I was wondering why he said Macs were stuck with slow usb drives.
Actually at $1299 it was a pretty good deal because a PC required that you buy a monitor, speakers, a modem, and was held back by MS Windows 95 which was a dog for too many reasons to count.
Steve knew that Nextstep was going to become MacOS X and he knew that the floppy drive was obsolete.
A balance had to be struck between giving customers a good value and saving Apple from going out of business. The iMac was a huge success at accomplishing that.
Later on he added an optical burner and apologized on an investment conference call that they hadn’t gotten to that sooner. See the Rip Mix Burn ad campaign.
4:28 nope this product failed miserably.
Imagine thinking stuffing a PC into a monitor was a good idea.
It can be good for the company because it requires expensive repair..
but for consumers.. i mean.. lololol.
These were found in some unfortunate schools and at certain peoples houses.
Apple was essentially worthless until they launched the revolutionary Ipod shuffle.
The Ipod shuffle came right as the internet switched to broadband and the timing was perfect for apple.
Sure you had Itunes but most people were still getting music from Napster and then filling their MP3 players.
Apple owes a lot of its success to the pirating of music... yet they.. wont even let consumers repair their products... lolol...
No intelligent person supports Apple, only the least intelligent people in society support this company.
I agree most apple products suck, I do like ipods. I watch these videos because jobs is very interesting.
Competitions always good for the consumers. Would pc's try to improve themselves if there is no Apple? Or would intel do the same if there was no AMD? I have been using Apple Silicon CPU for almost a year. So silent, energy efficient and performant. To understand what Apple made in mobile industry; just grab one of the old phones with physical keyboard. You will see how painful it was to type even a short message. I am not a fan of Apple, but thats sure it pioneered some technologies and made life easier for people.
Bro’s mad that he can’t afford an iPhone, lmao. Just the fact you care enough about hating apple to insult their customers intelligence is just insane tbh. Get a hobby bro.
@@yalcinozer4434exactly. Apple has done more for Computers than any other company. I’m just a casual apple enjoyer, but even I will praise them for their innovations.
They're the reason why you're able to type this in a custom type face on wireless internet that isn't a box you installed in your lawn.
This computer was absolute garbage. I remember seeing them in stores and nobody bought then since you couldn't run 95% of software on it, WAY overpriced, extreme restrictions on what you can do with it. Nobody bought them.
Windows 95 is 30 million lines of buggy code - Bill Joy
@@socialtraffichq5067 When this junk Apple PC came out Windows 98 was the normal and was far superior to junk mac OS. Even Windows 95 was so superior since you had the freedom to do what you wanted and all the programs out there were written for Window. Even to this day Mac OS suffers from lack of programs and is far too restrictive for the normal computer user.
