The orientation includes characters, time, and place. The
characters are Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, Paul and Clara Jobs, Abdul

took place is in San Francisco, California.
Steven Paul Jobs was born on 24 February 1955 in San
Francisco, California, to students Abdul Fattah Jandali and Joanne
Carole Schieble who were unmarried at the time and gave him up for
adoption. He was taken in by a working class couple, Paul and Clara
Jobs, and grew up with them in Mountain View, California.

2.2 Complication
However, by early 1985, sales decreased, but Steve Jobs
refused to acknowledge it and continued to behave as if he had saved
Apple. This created a lot of tension within the company, especially
between Steve and the CEO, John Sculley. In May 1985, Steve Jobs
started trying to convince some directors and top executives at Apple
that Sculley should go. Instead, many of them talked to Sculley, who
took the matter to the board of directors. The board sided with Sculley
and a few days later, announced a reorganization of the company
where Steve Jobs had no operational duties. He was fired from apple.
After four months spent traveling and trying new ideas, he came back
in September with a plan: he would start a new computer company,
with former employees of other apple. When Apple made a new idea,
they declared they would sue him as he was taking valuable
information about the company to compete with it. As a result, Steve
Jobs resigned in September 1985. He went ahead with his new plan,
and build a company NeXT. Apple dropped its lawsuit a few months
later.

2010. The company's software music player, iTunes, evolved into an
online music store, helped to popularize the idea of "legally"
downloading entertainment content.
In 2003, Jobs was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and
underwent surgery in 2004. Despite the success of this operation he
became increasingly ill and received a liver transplant in 2009. He
