Triumph of the Nerds
Posted at 11:11 am on Friday, September 26, 2008, in Film Retrospective, and tagged apple, microsoft, video.
This documentary of the rise of the personal computer is clearly dated, but it includes interviews with Bill Gates and Steve Jobs, including the memorable “Microsoft has no taste” line…*
This film does identify the basis however — for the record — the argument that Steve Jobs has exhibited the greatest second act in the history of business. Shortly after the airing of this documentary, Jobs returned to Apple, partnered with Microsoft, and has released a stream of ultra-popular consumer devices that has changed the market and culture in America (and the world).
