Steve Jobs Feature interview with Playboy- 1985!



In February 1985, that is shortly before he left Apple, Steve Jobs appeared in Playboy! What?! Well he was there for an interview and that's all. Here is an extract from the introduction to Jobs' interview with Playboy.
According to Playboy, Steve Jobs transformed a small business begun in a garage in Los Altos, California, into a revolutionary billion-dollar company—one that joined the ranks of the Fortune 500 in just five years, faster than any other company in history. And what's most galling about it is that the guy is only 29 years old. Jobs' company introduced personal computers into the American home and workplace. Before the founding of Apple in 1976, the image most people had of computers was of machines in science-fiction movies that beeped and flashed or of huge, silent mainframes that brooded ominously behind the closed doors of giant corporations and Government agencies.
