Yabe isiphinde yachazwa ngenye indlela inkampani ye-Epic Games, eyadonsela ukunaka kulokho ekholelwa ukuthi imikhuba engalungile ye-App Store. I-Macintosh ngaleso sikhathi kwakuyikhompuyutha yokuqala ukwazisa isixhumi esibonakalayo somsebenzisi.

Ikhompyutha Elandelayo (1988) 

Umlando womsebenzi kaSteve Jobs awuzange ufake i-Apple kuphela. Kwadingeka ayishiye ngo-1985 futhi ngemva kweminyaka emithathu wasungula inkampani yakhe i-NeXT Computer. Watshala amaRandi ayizigidi ezingu-7 kuwo, futhi ngemva konyaka wokuqala ikhona inkampani yasongelwa ngokuqothuka. Konke kwaxazululwa yibhiliyoni uRoss Perot, owatshala imali ku-Jobs futhi wakwazi ukwethula umkhiqizo wokuqala we-NeXT ngo-1990. "Indawo yokusebenzela" yakhe yayithuthuke kakhulu kwezobuchwepheshe, kodwa futhi ibiza kakhulu, ibiza u-$9.

Kodwa into eyinhloko yayimayelana nokulawula idivayisi, lapho ekugcineni singasusa wonke amapeni wokuthinta futhi ekugcineni siqale ukusebenzisa isibonisi sefoni ephathekayo ngeminwe yethu nje. I-iPhone 3G kuphela kanye nenguqulo yesibili yesistimu yokusebenza, ngaleso sikhathi esabizwa ngokuthi i-iPhone OS, eyaletha i-App Store futhi yaguqula i-iPhone yaba idivayisi ehlakaniphile egcwele.

I-MacBook Air (2008) 

Yayilula, izacile, inhle, uSteve Jobs wayikhipha emvilophini yephepha ngesikhathi esethula esiteji sengqungquthela yeMacworld. Ube eseyibiza ngokuthi "ikhompyutha ephathekayo encane kunazo zonke emhlabeni" ngenxa yobukhulu bayo bomzimba omncane. Ngenxa yomklamo wayo we-aluminium unibody, yabe isichaza ukubukeka kwayo yonke iphothifoliyo yenkampani yamakhompiyutha aphathekayo, ahoxa ekwakhiweni kwamakhompiyutha kusuka ezingqimbeni eziningi. Kodwa kuyiqiniso ukuthi ifomu lalinqoba umsebenzi lapha. Ngisho nangaleso sikhathi, kwakunembobo ye-USB eyodwa kuphela, yayingekho idrayivu yokubona, futhi iprosesa ye-Intel Core 1,6 Duo engu-2GHz, 2GB 667MHz DDR2 RAM kanye ne-hard drive engu-80GB kwakungeyona neze into ehamba phambili.
