Apple Over its thirty year history, Apple has survived and even thrived despite boneheaded business decisions. From pricing the Macintosh out of most consumers' reach to creating some really ugly computers, Apple has made a lot of bad decisions.

Jobs wasn't fired. This is a common misconception. He resigned because of power struggles. Although you could say it's similar to being fired, they just made life more difficult for him, making his decision a no-brainer.

This is according to Woz himself in his book iWoz. It's nice that this article states that. Most people think the movie "Pirates of Silicon Valley" is accurate.
