Steve Jobs and the Rise and Fall of NeXT Part 1

Update from Jonathan, 4/29/2024: I have completed writing the rough draft of part 2. At 14k words long, it will probably result in a final draft of 18-20k words. I do not have any estimate as to when it will be done, but once the script is complete I will immediately post it to our Substack, the video will follow a few months later.

Steve Jobs was an enormously influential figure in the history of personal computing, not only as a founder of Apple computer, but also as the man who significantly changed the way we experience computing, music, communications, and media.

But in between introducing the Macintosh in 1984 and the iMac in 1998, Jobs went through an interesting but rarely covered period in life where he was essentially fired from Apple and started a new computer company called NeXT. His goal was to repeat his success with the Macintosh and bring to market an entirely new platform that would go as far beyond the Macintosh as the Macintosh had gone beyond the IBM PCs.
