In the late 1970s,Jobs—along with Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak,Mike Markkulaand others—designed,developed,and marketed one of the first mercially successful lines of personal puters,the Apple II series.In the early 1980s,Jobs was among the first to see the mercial potential of Xerox PARC's mouse-driven graphical user interface,which led to the creation of the Macintosh.After losing a power struggle with the board of directors in 1985,Jobs resigned from Apple and founded NeXT,a puter platform development pany specializing in the higher-education and business markets.Apple's subsequent 1996 buyout of NeXT brought Jobs back to the pany he co-founded,and he served as its CEO from 1997 until August 2011.
In 1986,he acquired the puter graphics division of Lucasfilm Ltd,which was spun off as Pixar Animation Studios.He remained CEO and majority shareholder at 50.1 percent until its acquisition by The Walt Disney Company in 2006.Consequently Jobs became Disney's largest individual shareholder at 7 percent and a member of Disney's Board of Directors.On August 24,2011,Jobs announced his resignation from his role as Apple's CEO.
On October 5,2011,Jobs died in California at age 56,seven years after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.The cause of death has not yet been officially confirmed,but is generally believed to be pancreatic cancer.
