Apple 50th anniversary

Apple Inc. officially turned 50 years old on Wednesday, marking a milestone in the tech giant’s history since Steve Jobs, Steve Wozniak, and Ronald Wayne founded Apple Computer on April 1, 1976. What started as a small venture has gone a long way to become one of the largest tech companies that has been created in the history of the world. Apple’s 50th anniversary is a phenomenon that is being contemplated by the entire tech world.

All the operations, including the first production facility, were conducted in the family garage in Los Altos, California. The difference between the lowly origins and the present position of the technological giant is vast.
