Pirates of Silicon Valley Movie Review

The Pirates of Silicon Valley: Movie Review

                ‘Pirates of Silicon Valley’ is a movie that explores the rivalry between Steve Jobs and Bill Gates on the development of personal computers. It shows the history and relationship between Apple Inc. and Microsoft Inc.

                I don’t really know much about Gates and Jobs. All I know is that both of them are rich and are constantly at each other’s throats. I just had this notion that both of them are awesome since they helped and contributed a lot to the development of technology. I also know that people think highly of them because of that. This movie showed their early years in the business. It showed their passion in developing computers and also their negative sides. Like how Jobs had a hard time acknowledging her own daughter and how Gates developed Windows from an Apple software.


                I was surprised to see that Gates and Jobs were once friends. The thought never came to my mind so I was really surprised to see it. Especially when Gates worked for Apple, Jobs trusted him then BAM! Betrayal. Funny how he’s the richest man today when he started off with working for his rival company.
