Steve Jobs - Lost Interview break down

Bob Cringely:

I’m Bob Cringely.

16 years ago, when I was making my television series

"Triumph of the nerds," I interviewed Steve Jobs.

That was in 1995.

10 years earlier, Steve had left apple

Following a bruising struggle with John Sculley,

The C.E.O. He’d brought into the company.

At the time of our interview Steve was running Next --

The niche computer company he founded after leaving apple.

Little did we know that within 18 months he would sell Next to Apple

And six months later he’d be running the place.

The way things work in television,

We used only a part of that interview in the series.

And for years we thought the interview was lost forever

Because the master tape went missing

While being shipped from London to the use in the 1990s.

Then just a few days ago,

Series director Paul seen

Found a vhs. copy of that interview in his garage.

There are very few to interviews with Steve jobs

And almost no good ones.

They rarely show the CHARISMA,

CANDOR and VISION that this interview does.

And so, to honor an amazing man,

Here is that interview in its entirety.

Most of this has NEVER been seen before.
