 1. In general describe the main events that occured in the movie. You may divide them into two //separate// timelines, ones for Apple the other one for Microsoft Microsoft As they were interested in technology and computer devices, they were researching and creating this kind of things all the time. They quit school to make their own home-made computers. One thing that has to be mentioned is they both of them (Bill Gates and Steve Jobs from Apple) were cheating all the time They went to a computer fair in which they wanted to present their idea to Apple but they did not gain anything not even their attention So, they went to IBM, which was Apple's rival and presented an idea which they did not even have complete or made After a time Bill Gates was distracted he used to drink and didn't care about the work until some businessmen went to see him and he didnt have anything to show them so by no having any real project he went to Apple saying that Microsoft wanted to join them in order that apple, Steve Jobs trusted in him and give him one of their newest computers to copy the system and make a similar computer Apple The first device made by them was stealed from a cereal pack from which they created the "blue box" which was a device used as a phone but not paying any money to the company They created their first model of computer which was presented to a company which rejected their purpose to make their project as part of the company, so they started their own bussines selling the models to college students They created a computer model which was a hit They went with another company that already had presented a computer model with a mouse, by other comany, but they were rejected because the other company didnt want to accept a device called "mouse". They take parts from this computer model like the mouse and the keyboard Suddenly they became much and much famous among the media The owner of apple Steve Jobs, started forgetting about the first workgroup, apple 1,and he started a new one, macintosh, this gave him a bad image, on of the reasons was that he said to his employees that they were like pirates, because they had to be loyal, but in some way he betrayed his first project to create a new one that was better.

Both companies were like pirates, because they said that good artists copy and great artists steal, so both Bill Gates and Steve Jobs stole ideas from other people in order to present them as their own, what made them succeed selling their projects.
