Successfully supervised the switch from PowerPC processors to Intel’s Core

Steve Jobs successfully supervised the switch from PowerPC processors to Intel’s Core. Prior to 2006, Apple's computer lineup was predominantly powered by PowerPC CPUs. Jobs' announcement that Apple will transition from PowerPC processors to Intel's Core Duo CPUs might provide Apple with a significant competitive advantage. Apple's first laptop with an Intel CPU, the MacBook Pro, was introduced shortly after the announcement. In an astoundingly short length of time, the whole Apple line was switched to Intel by the end of the year.

Apple was able to transition to Intel seamlessly under Jobs' leadership by the end of 2006. Apple's MacBook got speedier than ever before after this change. Their yearly sales results showed this as well.

Jobs was interested in electronics, but he joined an organization called the Hewlett Packard Explorer Club, where HP experts showed young people their latest goods. It was there when Steve, then 12, saw his first computer. It had such an impression on him that he decided he wanted to work with computers right away.

Wozniak offered a PC that they rejected due to the terms of their contract with HP. It was also the year when Apple Computer Company was founded in 1976.
