  • 85 from Microsoft :/

  • Big Boobs Shaking!!!

    Thumbs up if you watched the ad mostly to the end, because of the sexy woman :)

  • 84 dislikes? Must have been intentional.

  • I started watching this on my asus net book, then felt I should watch it on my iPod so I did.

  • "You either die a hero... or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain."

  • The song at the beginning of this video - "We Are Apple (Leading The Way)." It's sung to the tune of "What a Feeling" - Flashdance theme. Search song title on YouTube. If you remember the 1980s, the video will most certainly take you back...

  • I am watching this on Linux!

  • Your video is a favorite on Niger

  • He's sooooooooooo handsome

  • thumps up if ur watchin this on a mac

  • Just read this in the biography

  • Wow... I also have the urge to buy the first-gen Mac when I see this ad. Steve is not just a great tech visionary, he's also a super salesman and master in presentation, if not, the best man ever seen.

  • oooooo.... there is so much charisma in the way he speaks........

    now i know why he was such an influential speaker .

  • Yes! am watching this coz of biography...best ad of all times! Must watch that... song is from that film 'Flashdance'....and yes he is quite handsome!

  • We're in 2011 and now that Apple is the strongest coumputer company in the world things are starting to look a lot like 1984 again... BTW, I wow several Apple products and love them, but I think that lack of competittion isn't good to no one.

  • Anybody know what is the name of the song in the beginning of the video please ?

  • In my opinion. This is the coolest ad ever.

  • what's a name of song?

  • @TheXurhan It's "Ira Car's What A Feeling" at least I think so. Because at the 1984 Shareholders Meeting, they used a version of the song with new Apple-centered lyrics. So what we hear here could be the original or the version with new lyrics.

  • just read about the ad in the biography. WOW!

  • Same here. Just read that chapter and had to see it myself. It's as dramatic as the ad. Steve could have shot the ad himself. He's got that artistic flair in him. He was a natural.

  • HE WAS INSANELY SEXY...!

  • I just read it in his bio too and I had to see it

  • Thumbs up if u r looking at this because u just read it on his biography and thought "wow i've gotta watch this".......... So i did.

  • Wow wow wow

  • We will have a long time to get one like him

  • He was the closest thing we had to Tony Stark...

  • Steve was so happy to see the reaction, Look at his smile!

  • RIP Steve thanks for the memories.

  • THUMBS UP :. NOW THAT IS WHAT YOU CALL A KEYNOTE INTRO .: THUMBS UP

  • The song is called "We are Apple". It was issued in 1983 to motivate the developers at Apple to work further on the Apple II and the Mac I think.

  • Song?

  • @supermike615 That's from an Apple commercial, just a catchy jingle, not a real song.

  • Waw.

  • ibm sucks

  • @metallicaisawesome54 it does now. :) after Jobs dedicated his life to make better products than them.

  • In this video, Steve speaks more powerfully and defiantly than in later times. I think his genius and self confidence were like organs of his body! May his soul rest in peace.

  • Who left on the gAy music? LMFAO

  • I only have two Apple products (Technically three.): A 160 GB iPod (originally I had an 80 GB iPod that I gave to my mom) and an iPod Touch. I'll get an iPad when they make one with more gig. I use a PC, though as an artist I really need a Mac, but I it'll be awhile before I can afford it. However, I've been using Macs all my life in school. Only until a few years ago, I never trully fathomed just how much Steve Jobs has influenced my life. Ironically, I was born in 1984. I'm greatful to Steve.

  • Great vid man. Steve jobs is gone. Very sad. Tim cook better bring the rain and be the best Tim cook ever. I was born when the apple II came out

  • Look Steve Jobs just got reborn again!

  • This was in 1983. He died in 2011. Sadly I definitely feel like I am living in a 1984 world in 2011. The Ad was eerily prophetic. Now I know why that woman was carrying a Hammer in the Ad. I think it is the Hammer of Thor. Something to do with a totalitarian type of rule. Also in a movie was released in 1983 called blue thunder. A Helicopter project of the military industrial complex/US Govt to crack down on citizen dissent by force . It was Codenamed THOR. RIP Steve Jobs a very talented Guy.

  • How ironic is it that Apple has turned into what they portrayed IBM as on that commercial.

  • Hat's off to you Mr Steve Jobs !! You are the one of the most powerful inspiration icon in the world.. Thank you for all your inventions !! We love you so much.. and we miss you as well as your innovative thoughts !!!!! RIP Steve Jobs !!

  • such a handsome man. sad to say that horrible cancer took it away :(

  • nobody says he was handsome?! looking like the young tom cruise!

  • @foreverneverO7

    Much more charming than Tom Cruise.

    Brains + Good looks

    He must have been a lady killer!

  • @foreverneverO7 id give him one

  • I bet if he showed them a 27 inch iMac they would all have a stoke...

  • Its amazing to think what technology wouldnt be like without Steve jobs and Apple. Rip.

  • this video is too significant to me for screwing it up with stupid jokes 1955-2011 STEVE JOBS, YOU RULE!!!

  • The world is not without another great mind and great person RIP :(

  • hero.

  • RIP

  • the rotten apple is dead

  • Despite my admiration for Jobs, it is curious to see Apple now trying to do what he criticised about IBM - dominating the industry. Even more with (at the time) unsuspected weapons such as patents...

    David has become Goliath, and behaves like one...

  • @borges58 then,,,,another David will emerge....this is call....evolution !.....nothing last forever !

  • türkiye'de olsa işsiz kalırdı.

  • I've always wondered: "what does the Sledgehammer represent?"

  • Each time I'm watching this, I'm shivering. This is the best motivational speech I've ever seen.

    Young, Hungry and Foolish.

    RIP Genius Steve.

  • RIP Steve jobs, btw the way he reads apple history is a little like skynet lol.

  • awesome

  • Only The Good Dies Young

  • Steve jobs. A visionary, a creative. Helped start a company, that became like a religion to some. Changing the way people think and communicate, since the beginning. Set out to destroy big brother, and put to death before his time. Role model to many that never even met him, including myself. We'll miss you steve.

  • RIP Steve Jobs

  • Rest In Peace Steve Jobs, We will miss you!

    i can´t believe, he is dead :(

  • #AppleForever

  • ..........PROFOUND INFLUENCE in this world but how big in the Kingdom of Yeshua, Jesus?

  • Steve is up in the big iCloud in the sky.. If he upgraded to unlimited storage (and I'm sure he did), he is probably up there.. But today the iCloud rains.. RIP Duder

  • Rip Steve, I'm a Droid person myself but you sure earned your rest, and will always have my respect

  • I believe this to be the most important speech of the 20th century, and he had that all knowing, smug look on his face on the day he died. How did he know??? Or did he just get us to believe in his dreams and visions, and but stuff we didn't even know we needed? 7 days ago I sat down in front of my first PC, after 20 years using ONLY Mac's. Thank you Steve!!!!! RIP

  • Thanks you Steve

  • Always remember!!!

  • A huge man , a visionary...a once in a lifetime kind of man...Steve you will ALWAYS be remembered..FOREVER!!!

  • Thank you for everything Steve. You will be missed and I am thankful for the short time I worked for Apple.

  • So sad to see this great man go. The world has lost a great human being.

  • And the place goes nuts. Talk about inspiring the troops. RIP Steve Jobs

  • Rest In Peace, Steve. I allways remember your words: STAY HUNGRY, STAY FOOLISH. THINK DIFFERENT!

    I do. And thank you for all. Thank you so much.

  • RIP Steve Jobs!

  • R.I.P. Steve Jobs, you will be deeply missed and never forgotten!

  • I will miss steve jobs a lot.

  • He was a great man, stole from almost everybody. People has given him the glory for so many things he was not a first mover on.

  • RIP, steve

  • RIP! We will always remember you like this...

  • Rest in Peace, Steve. Thank you for making my dreams come true.

  • the man knew how to put on a show

  • Why all the animosity towards this man. Yes, he had a huge ego but he was a great innovator and created one of the greatest business models and most iconic brand the world have ever seen.

  • RIP

  • 6:11 jizzed in his pants

  • It's now 2011... Where are IBM in today's market?

  • It's like doublethink in 1984, say where people use to say things like "democratic republic of congo" to brainwash people into believing they are actually living in a democracy. Here apple is using doublethink to fool people into believing they are not big brother when they actually are.

  • Steeve Job stop making expensive hand bags !!!!

  • @MrBadgamon You're telling him that over a youtube comment? Strange, but okay.

  • Im love apple and steve jobs

  • Apple is a fest. The rest is boring! Thank You Steve!

  • @joseavs 2006 IBM Sells all his total PC Division. Apple, leading by Steve Jobs introduce the Mac Book Pro. The must advanced computer for the rest of us. Great one.

  • Steve Jobs has worked at Dharma Initiative

  • Comment removed

  • I wonder if so much of Steve Jobs innovation and focus on these big launches was to recreate this powerful moment in time for himself?

  • Steve Jobs gives such powerful and emotional speeches! Here, he's so proud and cheerful! I love this ad! Why this ad wasn't aired again after introduction?

  • Wonderful or in portuguese SENSACIONAL!

  • One truly brilliant dude. Photographs have perspective, leaders have vision.

  • A true leader with perspective and charisma!!!!

  • Tom Cruise

  • Steve resigns i really feel sad...............today i watched pirates of silicone valley.....just watch...............long live steve jobs

  • Finally understand the futurama reference!!

  • He was a real hottie!

  • Can't believe you resigned Steve =[ @cOde_monkey

  • watching this when steve jobs resigned thumps up

  • This is it

  • His smile oh my God his smile ! says it all

  • Watched this on my iPod touch :) thanks apple

  • ah 240p we meet again .. !

  • Watching on iPad... : )

  • This is so great to see....... gosh he was so young and cute..... can't dream he will soon be a billionaire........

    I hate IBM's control it kept me away from Apple over 20 years because everyone said for work every computer and program had to be IBM compatible. Finally I got my Mac and I don't miss DOS...... I have seen some comments here.... they are people who do not understand the US market of that time and monopolies. I would do anything now to help Apple dominate Europe.

  • Idiotic speech. Just only because of IBM, you, me and evybody in whole world have access to the personal computing.

  • @tech4156 Pretty sure Apple still have a bit of work to do before they surpass Microsoft...

  • @MaxsSeveredHead Apple is now the 2nd largest company after Exxon. They have a larger market cap than Microsoft.

  • @nemock

    And now they're above Exxon :D

    Great moment in apple history.

  • Jobs Army

  • Funny the ad speaks about one cause, one ideology, one will, one people... perfectly describes Apple.

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • So he desperately wanted to become the Big Brother before IBM did. And he made it!

  • 2011 apple now has surpassed ibm, microsoft and everyone else. with the ipod, iphone, ipad 2, mackbooks, imacs, apple tv's.

  • Really brilliant but really geeky and that's why ppl didn't give a darn about that thing

  • steve jobs shall live 4ever

  • Where are Steves iCloths!?!

  • I'm old enough to remember back in 1983 that PC's were absolutely terrible.

  • is it me or does Steve Jobs look like Tom Cruise in this video.

  • @socalkev ahahahah i've thought the same thing!!! :D

  • Steve Jobs; brainwhashing since 1984

  • @avatarfilmeaza at least spell "brainwashing" right if you're going to make fallacious claims

  • @borgoat21 oh my! sorry teacher! ...

  • buy a mac  

  • Shit he was only 30 years old then....fuckin badass, he looks damn young, I wonder what Bill Gates looked like when he was 31?

  • @HistoMagouri

    He and Bill Gates were both 29 in 1983, they were both born in 1955.

  • @FutureiMacuser DAAAAMMMMNNNN

    Impressive. Peer Pressure in today's market huh?

  • He forgot the rest of his story:

    "1985. I get fired."

  • Ah steve jobs back in the day...He got too big headed back then...

  • So inspiring!

  • best advertising of all times

  • Gotta love the intro music!!
