And then, Oh, this, this one's just, um, from Paul Terrell computer notes newsletter.

So we'll skip that one.

Let's go to number nine or number.

but let's talk about Steve Jobs.

Steven Paul Jobs, so born in 1955 in San Francisco to, as we all know now, a Syrian PhD student named Abdulfattah Jandali, and a Wisconsin native and classmate of his at the University of Wisconsin, Joanne Schieble.

[lips smack] They put their baby up for adoption, and Joanne requested that he be adopted by college graduates.

These are two highly educated people, and they wanted, uh, their baby.

[laughs] The Simpsons were named by Matt Groening, but Mona Simpson is literally Steve Jobs's sister's name, and that's how they, Richard Apple, um, named Homer's mom after her.

Um, but it, it was not to be, and it was a closed adoption, so, um, the family did not know where the baby went.

That couple that signed that paperwork was Paul and Clara Jobs.

Paul Jobs, interesting guy, I think.

It was the first computer store in the world as well in Mountain View.

It was owned by a guy called Paul Terrell.

It was called the Byte Shop.

And he agreed to purchase 50 of these devices, but they had to be complete.
