While the full-length version of ‘The Lost Interview’ with former Apple CEO, Steve Jobs will be available on the 19th November, an exclusive teaser of the never before seen footage was revealed yesterday by What’s Trending.
The original hour long interview was conducted by author and journalist Bob Cringely during the making of his TV series “˜Triumph of the Nerds‘ in 1995. In the end, only a part of the interview was used in the series and it was believed that the rest of it was lost. However, a copy of the VHS (remember those?) was recently found in the director’s own garage. With the help of modern technology, the tape was cleaned up, restored and put into context by Cringely himself. At the time of the interview Jobs was running NeXT, the computer company he had founded after leaving Apple.
In the interview Jobs talks about his pioneering days with Steve Wozniak when they built the Blue Box, the visits he made to Xerox Palo Alto Research Center and how it inspired the making of the Macintosh and his forced departure from Apple.
During the interview Jobs states: “We were on a mission from God to save Apple. I don‘t care about being right. I just care about success.”
Steve Jobs died on the 5th October at the age of 56.
