Jobs co-founded Apple in 1976, but the original team turned to outsiders to run the company in its early stages of growth. He introduced the Macintosh at the now legendary annual shareholders meeting in 1984, changing the landscape of the personal computer industry and vaulting Apple into the forefront, but would leave the company a year later due to internal strife. Jobs then founded his own company called NeXT Computer, and bought part of LucasFilm's graphics division which became Pixar before going back to run Apple in 1996. In the next decade and a half, Jobs would introduce huge hits like the iMac, iPod, iTunes, iPhone and iPad. Apple has now grown into a $326 billion market cap tech behemoth with Jobs at the helm, though he has recently taken leave for medical reasons.
