Episode description
Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs are best known as the founders of Apple Computer Company. Apple was founded on April 1, 1976, but the two had been friends for five years. Just months after meeting, the two were intrigued and fascinated by an article on the illegal 'blue box,' a device that allowed you to make free phone calls, plus other illicit uses. After many weeks of immersing themselves in finding out how to build such a device, they succeeded. Thus began a shady business endeavor between them, ultimately laying the groundwork for the world's second-largest company.
