In 1973, Wozniak started the first, ‘dial a joke’ from a ‘Blue Box’ which allowed him to make free long distance calls. Jobs gave the idea to sell the ‘Blue box’ that Wozniak invented. (Steve Wozniak on Apple, Steve Jobs and the Value of a Good Prank - Knowledge@Wharton). This proves that the Blue box helped Wozniak and Jobs see that they can create a product and sell it. It gave them the confidence to continue creating more things. When both Wozniak and Jobs decided to sell the Blue box, both had a separate obligations. Wozniak was the creator of the product and Jobs was in charge of getting people interested. The Blue box that Wozniak created and the fact that Jobs gave the idea of selling it, helped strengthen their relationship. Without the Blue box, Apple wouldn’t exist today. Indeed, Working out of a family garage, Wozniak and Jobs attempted to produce a user-friendly alternative to the computers being made at the time (Dag Spicer). This shows that after the Blue box, Wozniak and Jobs were confident enough when working together. Wozniak and Jobs both took a risk when leaving school to work together on creating computers. They had the right to do that but if their plan failed, it would be their responsibility to either find a job or go back to college. This was important in history because if both Jobs and Wozniak didn’t take the venture of making computers, they wouldn’t have been confident enough to create Apple. It foreshadowed both of them being successful when creating products. In 1976, Wozniak along with Jobs founded Apple computer after some help from Intel executive, Mike Markkula (Steve Wozniak on Apple, Steve Jobs and the Value of a Good Prank - Knowledge@Wharton). If Wozniak and Jobs didn’t have a good friendship, they would’ve never felt trusting enough to create Apple. People would’ve never been given the iPhone, iPad, iPod...etc. Wozniak and Jobs had many obligations
