Started in a garage of Steve Wozniack who was an electronics hacker and his friend Steve Jobs with an idea to create personal computer, Apple today is a known name for electronic products. They literally sold the shirts off their backs. Jobs invested $1,500 that he got from the proceeds from the sale of his VW bus, wherein Wozniack deposited $250 in the company's treasury.
With this fund, they established Apple Computer, Inc., in 1976 and 30 years later renamed the company as Apple Inc. to reflect the company's ongoing expansion into the consumer electronics market in addition to its traditional focus on personal computers. Today the company has revenue of $108.249 billion with employee strength of 60,400.
