Many of us know the story of when Apple genius Steve Jobs was fired from the company he founded with his friend Steve Woznoiak. The 'Steve' they embarked on a great adventure with few resources and many successes, we just have to see what Apple is today.

It is clear that they had good and bad moments, but the worst for Steve Jobs, we are sure it was when he was estranged from what he and his friend Wozniak had created. Jobs was fired by the person he put in the position of CEO of Apple Computer, John Sculley.

Sculley, who had been President of Pepsico, entered Apple with that famous phrase that Jobs said to Sculley and that all the followers of Jobs's life remember: Do you prefer to spend the rest of your life selling sugar water or do you want to change the world? ? Sculley would end up being 'Jobs's executioner' at Apple. The reason they agreed with the company management to fire Jobs was pretty clear according to them: Steve had constants personality changes which affected the work environment at Apple.

Everything changed in 1996, specifically the December 20 of that year, when Apple was in a free fall without a parachute due to the company's economic problems, in a desperate attempt by the company not to sink, Gil Amelio President of Apple in those days organized a press conference to communicate to all that Steve Jobs was returning to the company.

Actually, and if we look at the Cupertino company today, we sincerely believe that Jobs succeeded, and that is why these images published by Tim Holmes on his Flickr account have a great interest among lovers of Apple's history. In them we can see that day in which Steve Jobs returned to Apple to make it what it is now, one of the largest companies in the world.

By the way I love that colored apple that the company used at the time!
