When Jobs was a teenager, growing up in Los Altos, he could never have imagined that one day he would be at the helm of a company whose headquarters is just 1.6 miles from the front gate of his high school, Homestead High in Cupertino. He might wonder, too, about those twists and turns that helped make him what he is: the fact that his boyhood was spent in an area that, back then, had not even been labelled Silicon Valley; that Apple’s co-founder, Stephen Wozniak, was a boyhood chum; and that he worked one summer as a lab technician at Atari, the maker of Pong, the first popular arcade video game.
