Journey back to 1976 – a time of oversized mainframes and computing exclusivity. In the most unexpected setting—a modest suburban garage in California—two visionaries, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak, sparked a revolution. This is the story of Apple’s humble beginnings and the birth of the personal computer.

Picture this: a cluttered workspace filled with circuit boards, soldering tools, and the quiet hum of passion-driven innovation. With shaggy hair and t-shirts betraying their youth, Jobs and Wozniak worked tirelessly in this garage, their creativity and ambition casting the first threads of what would become a global phenomenon. Despite the odds, they took the plunge, crafting their legacy out of an unassuming wooden box: the Apple I.

At a time when computers were towering machines accessible only to large institutions, the Apple I made a daring claim—it was not just a tool for scientists but a gateway for ordinary people to the boundless potential of technology. The duo’s handmade creation marked the dawn of the personal computing era, shifting the paradigm forever.

From those humble beginnings, Apple grew into a colossus, reshaping industries and empowering individuals. But the core of its story remains rooted in creativity, audacity, and relentless vision. Watch this nostalgic dive into their journey—an extraordinary tale that continues to inspire dreamers and innovators around the world.
