On The Job: The Launch Of Apple
While the 26-year-old Wozniak was content with his computer hobbyist group, the 21-year-old Jobs had a greater vision for the future. After seeing a computer that Wozniak had designed for himself, Jobs began to think about the marketability of such products.

Jobs’ passion and Wozniak’s engineering talent would soon combine to become a revolutionizing force in the computer industry.

Lesson #2: Don’t Settle
“The only way to do great work is to love what you do,” says Jobs. “If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle.”

Lesson #4: Thrive On Change
Dell believes in the power of deriving strength from change.

From Peddling to Profits: How Thomas Watson Achieved Success
When Watson decided to change the name of his company to International Business Machines, he knew that it was a big name for a small company.

Aside from IBM employees, no one was more important to Watson Jr. than the company’s customers, and nothing was more important than pleasing them – whatever it took.

Technology is So Passé … It’s All About Fashion

Local storage...centralized storage...personal storage...cloud storage. Your next product, service can be hot, cold, dead in a month. We flip faster than skirts rise and fall. There are no bold , ah ha predictions here but at least you'll know why you change phones, computers (whatever) more often than you change cars. What's it gonna be tomorrow? Don't ask the buying public(s)..invent it!!!! -- borrowed from John Doerr (come on what do you think fashion is? Right creative borrowing!).
