Campaign hama jump jim has the latest. Just days after he announced his candidacy in his countrys upcoming president ial elections egypts military has arrested former Egyptian Armed forces chief of staff sami annan. In a televised statement the military said imam committed violations when he announced his president ial bid without obtaining permits from the armed forces hes also accused of committing forgery to be included in the voter database there are two explanations for this one is that he actually miscalculated the level of support that he has within the minute any institution and within the security interests so within the pollen institutions the second one is he actually did not mistaken a decision he expected to step and this is not the end of the story you probably see something a count of the action on his part or the part of his loyalists so its still too early to tell im not announced his intention to run hours after current president of the fatah has sisi declared his plan to seek a second term even before sisi made his candidacy official it wasnt just widely assumed that sisi would prevail in the march elections it was also widely expected that real opposition to sisi was likely to be thin on the ground potential candidates have either already withdrawn or seen their candidacy while. Some have blamed an atmosphere of fear to other president ial hopefuls were forced to quit the race earlier this month one of them and one said that the nephew of former leader anwar sadat said last week he wanted to protect his Campaign Workers from intimidation or arrest another former Prime Minister and air force general ahmed shafiq had also announced his interest in running but he was placed under house arrest before being deported from the United Arab Emirates where hed been living in exile according to his lawyers was detained as soon as he landed in cairo. And then there is Egyptian Army colonel ahmed consul in december he was sentenced by a military court to six years in prison after he announced his plans to run for president leaving many to wonder just how serious a threat the military men may have posed to sisi a former military chief of staff. And is somebody with hes a serious contender he was the former chief of staff the deputy head of the Supreme Council of the armed forces did winning body after mubarak and he is much senior in terms of the military command and. So hes somebody who is very well connected with the americans very well connected regionally so hes not someone who was a lightweight anyway during ccs rule which has been marked by a crackdown on freedom of expression human Rights Groups have been placed under severe restrictions and many critics in the media have been silenced the question now how many more president ial candidates will be added to a seemingly growing list of those being suppressed.

Level lucia knowing. The languages thing was what they were passionate about bill gates and paul allens goal in one hundred seventy five was to dominate the languages business on personal computers thats why they left harvard immediately afterwards in april nine hundred seventy five gates and allen start their Company Microsoft the purpose is to sell basic but above all to develop new software for future computers also in one thousand nine hundred eighty five in Palo Alto California another do you steve jobs and Steve WozniakHigh School Students who are fans of this new technology also discover the ultimate h. The start of an epic journey. Steve was now he looked at that altitude for him this was not an elegant third. Too many chips the thing was too big so immediately what was was doing as ed was saying i can design a computer all on one board this would be the one was in jokes of the first to succeed in putting all of the components that make a computer hooked onto a single board power supply keyboard and memory all connected to screen the two friends have just invented the personal computer making out the one was purely was his idea and it was purely his design but once he showed it to his good friend steve jobs steve is the marketing person you see. We can make money. But for now the apple one is being manufactured in the jobs family garage. Im pretty much the only person who worked in the garage at least on the apple line. Steve jobs was on the phone all the time he was in the kitchen on the phone i was in the garage testing up on boards one year after the founding of microsoft the Apple Computer companies established in april nine hundred seventy six microsoft and apple the two pillars of the computer revolution they both and a believe that computers were not just important but crucial. And. And yet they had a very different way of going after it jobs was coming from hardware and and gates was coming at it from software and that was so they came at it from two Different Directions but they both. Were very strong minded men who believed they were they were changing the world. While bill gates continues to develop his basic the Silicon Valley do you will push ahead Steve Wozniak develops the apple two steve jobs looks at investors so that he can grow his young company. Impressed by jobs Angel Investor mike marketa invests two hundred fifty thousand dollars in apple which expands and moves to cupertino where its headquarters are still located today.

The apple two was a huge that it was actually really the first usable personal computer the apple two always you know i always thought it was magical because you could do almost anything you thought of if he were creative enough the apple to the first personal computer designed for the general public the sales are phenomenal it in bodies the computer revolution but it has a serious handicap and the person who has the solution is bill gates was the acro version of basic but it wasnt. Completely up to date that was a certain aspect of it that wasnt in there so they began looking around for another version of basic that ran on that ship that the apple two used and microsoft was a company that had it so they got in touch with bill gates. With basic microsoft supplies with the apple two locks this is the first collaboration between bill gates and steve jobs but at the end of the seventys thanks to the success of the aapl to the spotlight is on steve jobs and then in one nine hundred eighty they went public so there are all these people have stock that got very rich in it was one of the first Public Companies in the personal computer space where people got rich so then people turn to really paying attention whats it like to get rich its very interesting i was worth. About over a Million Dollars when i was twenty three and over ten Million Dollars when i was twenty four and over one hundred Million Dollars when i was twenty five but. Especially at that point in my life it was it was not the most important thing the most important thing was the company the people the products we were making the products also the obsession of bill gates his vision of a world organized a run software. Theres a lot of people who are forecasting that theyll be Software Stores just like there are Record Stores today and that theyll be thousands and thousands of those and i think id have to agree with that all manner of those first product was basic and that was sold to apple and that was sold to radio shock commodore they were all customers so he already was doing business with sort of everybody that was trying to make personal computers he was the first person to really have the idea of a Software Company separately from a Hardware Company and that maybe the Software Company was going to create more value the Hard Work Company apple was the big elephant you know bill gates was the mouse so bill gates being that position he was a scheming you know strategic guy and he managed to work his company up despite the fact that the giants of the personal computer Business Apple and to some extent in i. B. M. Were giants and he had to get his software on to them in order to grow his company. I. B. M.

I dont allow him to license it other people might clone i. B. M. P. C. I. B. M. Did not really think anybody else was in a successfully clone their p. C.

Industry id say within six months of him doing the i. B. M. Deal. Everybody in Silicon Valley knew about microsoft the. In the early eightys steve jobs and bill gates are still under thirty two key players in a rapidly expanding industry meteoric Success Stories for two very different personalities. Robert cringely knew both men well he worked with gates and jobs starting in the late seventys a former staff member at apple he switched to journalism and for more than thirty years has written about their rivalry with bill was always about the money with steve it was never about the money and money is nice but it was never about them i am so that that made them black and white you know up and down up the hole they were there very very different people i hired steve jobs at atari when i think hughes ninety. He was very sure of himself and was quick to judge whether he thought you were smart or dumb and if he thought you were dumb he was very dismissive even if you were his supervisor he he was very good at knowing what he wanted and he would just steamroll you into doing it and he definitely relied on his instincts a lot he relied on his gut he talked about that all the time and thats a certain type of spiritual dimension of being into being you know we had read books about for instance goren chief a famous russian spiritual master who was always talking about integration and the horror of this which means using all your faculties which means using your third eye of vision. In the seventys like many of the hippies at the time steve jobs and his friend daniel leave to go to india the trip is a rite of passage a search for spiritual wisdom. We were looking for a wise man who had secrets of knowledge for us. Nothing really much happened to us we did not find the guru we hoped we would find. Steve would talk about all this. Spiritual stuff and yet he could be a cool person you know he he he had a real troubles with intimacy he couldnt allow himself to get close to people. I dont know why you know he loved the idea of spiritual ism but to live it was hard for him. And bill is just geeky and l. Hes he hes just a very nerdy guy and as such in especially his early years he had problems communicating and being understood and his family didnt know what to do with them and he found his niche in business and technology and succeeding just on the basis of brainpower steve jobs and much better marketeer them than bill gates was but he was not really that technical he was not a technical. Code writer bill gates could write code and write good code bill just different he lead with the data and with the inside in the technology any idea where steve led with you know whats it feel like to look like you know so. Much more technical much more marketing where we are one. In one recent one. Was.
