Pirates of Silicon Valley



Story:
The revolution came when we weren't looking. It happened in a garage. In a dorm room. In countless hours of effort, imagining and intrigue. Apple co-founder Steve Jobs and Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates were changing the way the world works, lives and communicates. The event-packed saga of the quirky visionaries who jump-started the future unfolds with exhilarating, cutting-edge style in Pirates of Silicon Valley. Noah Wyle (ER) portrays Jobs and Anthony Michael Hall (The Dead Zone) portrays Gates in this chronicle of the fierce and often humorous battle to rule the fledgling personal computer empire. "The story is almost Shakespearean... it's a tale of lust, greed, ambition, love and hate," writer/director Martyn Burke reflects. And it's a success story unlike any other.
This movie was fun for me. I wanted to know the relationship between Steve Jobs and Bill Gates and also how they achieved success and fame.

Both of them really loved computer and they ungrudgingly made an effort to create new things. I think their state of consciousness in devoting themselves to computer were "flow" or "zone".

The state of consciousness may be key point for success.

Umm, after all, they are quite peculiar character!
