The maker of coloured computers
The year is late 1998 and three friends gather for a chat. They usually chat about IT industry, the stock market and anything else..
A: You know Steve is back at Apple.
B: Big deal.
C: He is a good guy but what can he do?
A: Stock price is around US $10/INR 400, should we buy?
B: Apple stock? The maker of coloured computers?
C: Ha, Ha
Fast forward to 2011, The Apple stock is at US 378.25 approx INR 18,000.
More than the stock price it is the impact that Apple and its legendary founder Steve has created on the world, IT and consumers worldwide that has made millions of people outpour their grief.
On behalf of all my colleagues and friends and family, Steve, may you continue to enthrall where ever you are and whatever you do.
Oh, and one more thing.. That C above is yours truly.
Regards,
Tarun
