JASON D. O'GRADY has written for many Macintosh trade magazines, including MacWorld, MacWEEK, and MacPower (Japan). He has also been interviewed on ABC, NPR, NBC, and BBC radio, and featured in the New York Times, Wall Street Journal, and USA Today. O'Grady runs O'Grady's PowerPage.org, a Web site devoted to mobile applications related to Apple products.
Describing Apple Inc. as the 'little company that could,' O'Grady
(who has written for Mcintosh trade magazines and who has a Web
site devoted to applications related to Apple products), traces the
history of the company founded by Steve Jobs in 1977 as Apple
Computers. The book includes an illustrated timeline of its
hardware and software innovations; information on key players;
competition; financial data; Macworld Expo; and trivia (e.g., the
Macintosh was nearly named the Bicycle). But missing from the
discussion of the company's future prospects is a possible
successor to the apparently ailing Jobs.
