Apple's co-founder Steve Wozniak has spoken on his Facebook, to give his opinion on the good and the bad, about the new 'Steve Jobs' movie. Steve Wozniak also comments on the early days of apple and the leadership of John Sculley, which helped save the Original Macintosh and consequently to Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC),.
Woz said he was impressed by the precision of the new movie, Which is writing by Aaron Sorkin y directed by Danny Boyle, but it is not without its flaws. Some of the scenes never took place in real life, while other important events that did take place are being lost.
The conversations I have with the job in the movie never took place, but they represent themes that were real and probably came out differently, surely from the job. Woz explains.
Some of the other conversations in the movie, which involve Woz criticizing the original Macintosh release and the NeXT never happened, at least not between Jobs and myself.
Woz really likes what a good interpretation of Jobs and his personality really represents in a very credible way. Woz says that the interpretation performed by fassbender, is very similar in many ways in real life, adding that the acting and the direction is excellent.
Although the real story is debatable (and that would add negative parts in some respects), it is well presented.
Woz adds that Jobs was never kicked out of Apple, He's gone, and that he always supported him in his belief to create computers (even failures). However, Jobs would never blame himself for those failures. For example, hiring LISA cost too much, and Jobs blamed Apple engineers for not making the Mac cheaper even though Steve didn't know computers and what it would take to make a proper Mac.
Steve felt it was the fault of the lousy engineers who couldn't find options. Jobs in the meetings they had, called the useless engineers and left.
Thanks to Jobs' marketing skills, the sales of the Apple II helped finance the Apple III, LISA, Macintosh and NeXT failuressays Steve Wozniak, and this is not highlighted in the movie.
