*Apple's Key Events*

Every business had its ups and downs. Successful companies are always those who make the right decisions at the right time. It needs visions, personalities, and a philosophy which is the golden thread, the DNA.

*1* Combining the development of hard- and software
*2* Bringing the computer, sorry the Mac', to normal people
*3* Initiating disruptive and sustaining innovation in the market of mobile devices
