Jobs reportedly claimed that he left [[Christianity]] when he was thirteen and saw a Life magazine picture of starving children.<ref>http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/44979333#.TqN5x0cRqO8</ref>  That story, however, sounds implausibly similar to the reason given by [[Buddha]] for founding [[Buddhism]], a belief system that Jobs later found attractive.  Jobs was, in fact, similar to many California teenagers in the 1970s who did what they liked, while rejecting Christianity. But that all changed when he found out about his cancer.  "Ever since I've had cancer, I've been thinking about (God) more. And I find myself believing a bit more. Maybe it's because I want to believe in an afterlife. That when you die, it doesn't just all disappear."

Jobs left Apple in 1985 when the CEO he recruited in 1983 gave the board of directors a "him or me" ultimatum, but later returned in the mid-1990s to eventually restore it to preeminence. He was credited with overseeing the development and marketing of the Macintosh, the iPad, the iPhone, and the iPod.
