101 Facts About Apple

greetings mother that does and welcome to this sleek streamlined and not very good at running video games edition of 101 facts I am Sam and today I'm here to talk about the technological giant comprised of app stores black sheet of glass and rainbow wheels of frustration yes that's right it's Apple but what are some of Steve Jobs is most bizarre habits and actions what secrets are hiding on your iPhone will I get free iPhones for the rest of my life for doing this video please two out of three of those questions aren't going to be answered so boot up tell Siri to hold your calls for a half hour and prepare to take a chomp out of this juicy topic although don't really it's full of wire and glass in fact quite dangerous this is 101 fact about Apple number one in case you thought this was worth a sorrowful lonely little fruit sitting in a bowl all forlorn and lost it ain't but someone eat that guy quick smart and put him out with misery no instead this is about the technological giant Apple which was founded in 1976 in California a number to Apple was born in the garage of Steve Jobs who looks suspiciously like Ashton Kutcher and Michael Fassbender along with co-founder Steve Wozniak or was and Ronald Wayne number three what sneaking Jobs both had jobs at Atari well that's a confusing sentence together they worked on the arcade game breakout which inspired them to break out into the home system scene see what I did there you've probably now month number four Apple one was the first Apple product on the market which is only logical really it was rather satanically priced at 666 dot 66 cents which would be the equivalent of around $3,000 today wasn't except that this price was just because he liked repeating digits by the way so don't borrow your iphone isn't a Illuminati portal the hell hahaha although there's probably an app to that anyway number five these Apple one four kilobyte memory personal home computer kits were handmade by Wozniacki using word of all things number six in order to gather the funds to build the first few units which is around $1000 by the way jobs had to sell his Volkswagen van well as the IKE also sold his HP 65 calculator which sounds a little bit less like a sacrifice really but actually those things work pensive back then number seven that Ronald Wayne guy I mentioned earlier left the company shortly after its birth he sold his 10% share for eight hundred dollars a good deal I hear you think but if he had kept that 10% it would have been worth seventy five point five billion dollars today not to rub it in to the guy he's watching but that's a 75 billion four hundred ninety nine million nine hundred ninety nine thousand two hundred dollar loss I kind of stuff as Walter White stole things to a man numbering the name Apple came about when Jobs halves on a fruitarian diet which is probably just about as boring for your tongue as it sounds after coming back from an apple farm or an orchard that they're otherwise known he was inspired and thought the name was fun spirited and not intimidating number nine Beatles company Apple call actually sued Apple computers for trademark infringement ah come on guys why do you just come together the case was settled in 1981 for eighty thousand dollars which is around 8 million penny lanes okay that was weaker I'm at a stop now another turn this stopped Apple from entering the music business to for a while interestingly though despite this Steve Jobs list the Beatles as one of his biggest role models claiming that John Lennon's work ethic inspired him to push for perfection in his company imagine that okay I'm sorry I do promise I will stop now dr. Knopf number 11 Apple's first logo wasn't actually this at all that this image of Isaac Newton sitting under an apple tree this looks more like a logo for cider than anything else number 12 as of 2013 around 63 Apple one computers are still in existence but only six work because of its rarity today's Apple ones are auctioned at tremendously high prices in 2016 a prototype made by Jobs himself was auctioned for eight hundred and fifteen thousand dollars eight hundred fifteen thousand and it's made would number thirteen to give you an idea of how gargantuan this body company is it's made more money than the US Treasury in fact nearly three times as much number fourteen in 2014 the company was so successful in its first quarter that they made more than Amazon Google and Facebook combined suck on Zuckerberg page and Tarzan number 15 Apple's current California headquarters span 856 thousand square feet and houses three thousand employees their new HQ the Apple Park will cover 176 acres and cost five billion dollars look at it it looks like a building Tony Stark would build number 16 in fact just the open area in the middle of Apple's new HQ is big enough to house the entirety of Levi's stadium number 17 this kind of makes sense though given that the company has over 490 stores in 17 countries and hundred 15,000 store employees worldwide number 18 in 2013 one iPad was bought every second across the world I mean not just by one guy or something not to be outdone the iPhone managed to sell 4.7 units per second again not just one guy number 19 the creator of the iPod Tony Fadell first off it is designed to a company called real networks as well as Phillips who both turned it down and possibly the biggest mistake ever made ever except that Ronald guy from before okay that's pretty bigger number 20 Hey in one city specifically kunming in China 22 thank Apple soles were discovered and closed down the fake saws had exactly the same layout and uniform and contained replicated goods to look like Apple staff now that's what I call AI fraud number 21 so as you can hear Apple has been a resounding success so far the Chinese don't just copy any old company after all however no 6s came without to fail or to believe me I should know and one fail in particular came with the Apple Lisa in 1983 number 22 Oh Apple spent four years and fifty million dollars developing the idea of young Lisa and sold it at a price of nine thousand nine hundred ninety five dollars which is frankly a mental amount of money because of this price the Lisa was unpopular and was discontinued after only one hundred thousand units were sold number 23 there have been claims that Apple create fake projects so they can mislead other companies and the media about what they're up to according to Adam Lycians these inside Apple book however a report from Ars Technica claims that this is a myth standing in an interview with an Apple employee number 24 the company is unsurprisingly on the fortune 500 list of big successful brands and companies and has been on it for over 22 years it remains ranked number three to this day number 25 even though they started the company together Wozniak and Jobs became um not exactly on the best of terms even though he's probably the name you first think of when you think of Apple Steve Wozniak claimed in 2015 that Jobs played no role in the design that the Apple 1 & 2 and that he just wanted to be important ouch sick burn bro number 26 in fact in 1982 Time magazine correspondents Michael Moritz followed Jobs around his business for a big article which Jobs thoughts would make him Man of the Year instead Mortimer named him machine of the Year and portrayed him in a less than good light which apparently actually made Jobs cry and made him hate the press number 27 Jobs was actually fired from Apple in 1985 by CEO John Sculley was also the CEO of Pepsi actually although that's nothing to brag about the instinct this was down to the less than lovely sounds of the Lisa and the Apple 3 which was up against some stiff competition in the form of the IBM PC number 28 suing it's on the way though Steve Jobs sure character busy he became majority shareholder for example in a missile production company called the graphic group if you haven't heard of it by the way that's because it's now under a different name and that name is Pixar another 29 in fact after Woody and Buzz first met each other and escaped an evil goth kid Steve Jobs became the largest stockholder in the company with 50.1% he was also on the board of directors too and stayed this one even after Disney bought Pixar in 2006 so without him I wouldn't have my beloved iPhone worley or Bing bong Oh Bing bong number 30 he also founded the computer company next-next which would in turn go on to make next computers number 31 during 1993 to 96 the next company went from hard to soft and we've all been there by which I of course mean dropping out of the hardware business and focusing on operating systems and software instead the company also launched a web object a swanky web application the big business just Dell the BBC and Disney worked with number two in 1996 Apple expressed an interest in using next because they were having trouble competing with one another the idea was replaced the current software with next lovely stuff and in fact of break the narrative flow for a sec next steps interface is still kind of being used today in the dock and in finder Oh God humans see that exit exit Navarrete eddie fray after this next was 14 1997 for four hundred and twenty nine million dollars and CEO Steve Jobs returned back to the Apple he'd once picked off the tree of his mind number 34 marketing chief Phil Schiller stated in the 2013 Apple V Samsung trial get up gets back that Apple did not need any more advertising instead the company relies on TV shows film a music video product placement and the media creating a big storm and content around any of ND products like I'm doing right now ole crikey number 35 back in the days when they did have to advertise though Apple hide movie maestro responsible for the wedding of many plants would be Scots to direct the iconic 1984 TV advert for the Macintosh computer and has since been described as a masterpiece of advertisement number 36 but even though they don't need advertising Apple considers presentation of their brands so important that they hire specific packaging designers according to Adam Lucian Sookie's book inside yep that's right him again some packaging designers are actually required to sit and open their boxes over and over and over again supposedly for months dot imagine the paper cups number 37 cut that down you by the way I mean that in the a British way of cigarette and not the other awfully offensive way because smoking will void the warranty of your Apple Computer according to geek comm many customers are complains and their faulty Apple goods have been turned down by the stores because the computer was contaminated with cigarette smoke and was considered a biohazard number 38 have you ever noticed that in a great deal of iPhone adverts the iPhone always reads 9:41 a.m. that's because 9:41 a.m. is the time Steve Jobs announced the very first iPhone haha yeah a nifty little thing to notice in it number 39 Steve Jobs and Microsoft's old Billy gates weren't always rivals you know for Apple to Microsoft had made software for the early machines and they'd work together on the Macintosh number 40 however this rocky frenemy will they won't they relationship okay maybe not that last one when kind of sour after Bill Gates announced the first Microsoft computer in 1985 number 41 ipods now they're successful little bastards aren't they as at the end of 2014 Apple had sold 390 million iPods across the tapestry of time the meaning of life this may in part be responsible for the fact that in 2010 Apple overtook Microsoft as the most valuable technology company in the world yeah story gate Savoy number 43 but hey of course Apple didn't want to stop there in August of 2011 Apple replaced Exxon as the most valuable company in the world number 4 in fact in 2014 Apple was worth more than the entire Russian stock market according to bloomberg if you owned Apple incorporated and sold it you could purchase the entire stock market of Russia and still have enough change to buy every Russian an iPhone 6 plus well free iPhones for you Russians you lucky people number 45 this by the way is an iPad nice innit you think that this whole thing is that all for and through wouldn't yeah well you would be wrong Samsung actually manufactured the Retina screen that Apple uses onyx iPads this is apparently because according to Bloomberg Apple asked LG and sharp but their screens didn't make their high standard leaving just Samsung available to make them number 46 according to Apple Insider Samsung but also supplying around 40% of the a3 processing chips in iPhone 6 and 6 passes to don't like the old Frankenstein's monsters of tech firms number 47 Siri it's a wonderful little thing a little voice that delivers to me the weather for the evening and countdowns until the next Jennifer Lawrence movie comes out so so handy but you and perhaps I should be careful about what we say to him/her or it everything you say to Siri is analyzed and stored by Apple for up to two years number 48 it should be said though that what you say - series kept anonymously and rather than your name there's a random number assigned to what you say according to an apple spokesperson talking to wires this is apparently for testing and product development purposes still at least as anonymous so Apple don't know I talk to Siri like it's my best friend an art of a life advice write our crap adjusted on the internet they know now another looking line by the way don't use Apple products to make nuclear missiles or chemical or biological weapons I know it's tempting but actually you violate their Terms of Service as well as the Geneva Convention the Terms of Service specifically say you were not to use Apple products in the development design manufacture or production of nuclear missiles or chemical or biological weapons strangely specific rules are I mean just don't use anything to make those weapons if you feel like you want to make them just just sit down and rethink the whole thing number D anyway have you ever wondered why no other phones eg iPhones easy sign to lock method I mean no iPhones eat anymore because of the updates but still it's because Apple had a patent on it and had legal arguments over it with Samsung not those two have a weird relationship making things one minute suing each other than next number of everyone in fact to add to it rogues gallery Apple have had many legal battles with Samsung they had law based fisticuffs and courts around the world from the UK to the US Australia South Korea and Japan number 52 despite Apple's widespread success some US states still don't have an Apple store these includes Montana West Virginia North Dakota South Dakota Vermont and Wyoming number 53 in 1994 Apple was designing its power Macintosh seven one hundred under the codename Carl Sagan because of the astronomers catchphrase billions and billions tying in to Apple's beliefs it would make billions and billions of dollars very cocky number 50 thought you'd have thought that Sagan would have loved this little nickname but he didn't as he was concerned it's unlucky endorsement for the product on his behalf he wrote a letter to Mack week expressing the fact he didn't like this name to which Apple responded by changing the codename said to be hate a or us head astronomer dear after he heard of this he was rather razzed off and tried to sue the libel number 55 the case was thrown out of courts because the phrase at butthead couldn't be misconstrued as fact which is true because well I mean there literally is no but on his head Sagan tried to sue them again for using his name in the first place but again failed to which he appealed eventually they settled it out of court for this the engineer's code named the machine l aw instead which is an acronym for lawyers are wimps number 56 Apple spent 10 billion dollars in 2016 just on the research for future products 10 billion they should have just asked me I'd have done it for free and ad I infront of things you know like an aivars or an eye catheter number 57 Apple is extremely picky about who it hires to work for them statistically you have a better chance of getting into Harvard than working for Apple as just 2% of the people who applied for their New York store got a job compared to the 7% who applied and successfully got into Harvard number 58 in fact even after hiring you Apple is very careful about letting new workers near its items in fact according to Adam Lewinsky again Apple often has new staff working on fake products until the company knows who can trust them which Wow must have cost a lot of money in itself that being said I do often do the same climbs been working on 101 facts about Hanson this week and that's not going anywhere number 59 all apple sauce has employee numbers Steve Jobs got number 2 and Steve Wozniak got number one it apparently upset Steve so much that he didn't get the number 1 that he later took the number zero number Shecky a chief design officer Jonathan Ive has appeared in video demonstrations of new Apple products since 2000 in every video he has worn the same t-shirt I assume he washes them in-between if not ill number 61 according to calls of Mac when designers presented the first prototype iPod to Steve Jobs he dropped it into an aquarium the clumsy twit oh wait no sorry that wasn't an accident he did it to show them the air bubbles coming out of the device in the water to prove it could still be smaller number 62 kind of lucky it was an aquarium really it could have been a hell of a lot worse considering that according to his biography Steve Jobs used to wash his feet in the toilet apparently it made him feel relaxed he is hoping you flush first hey number 33 in other pretty weird design choices the battery of some of the older Mac books are apparently strong enough to be bulletproof this was even proven on the TV show Mythbusters although we don't envision soldiers wearing them at a vesting time soon Nintendo 64 ah the App Store a labyrinthian marketplace of all you could ever need in your devices right well apparently not according to throne arena 60% of all apps in the App Store have never ever been downloaded that's over 400,000 apps created for literally no reason just sitting there including mine where I suited to sleep by singing Robin Williams song of your choice I can't believe that I'm in downloaded at least once here you've got stars direct in your hate number 65 an 11-year old boy from Lancashire ranked up a six thousand dollar bill from buying add-ons from the App Store for games such as Smurf Village wow that kid must have loved that visit number 66 even kanye west had this problem with this daughter as evidenced by a meltdown on Twitter sorry I'm not sure why I find this funny number 67 in 2014 Apple agreed to pay thirty two point five million dollars of compensation the parent in the u.s. for not suing a parent law can purchase products for cases such as this number 68 the most downloaded free app on the iOS store is Pokemon go to pretty much nobody surprised in terms of most downloaded for paid apps however that honor goes a Minecraft Pocket Edition number 69 Oh in the 1980s specifically 86 Apple branched away from electronics have moved into the most obvious industry for a tech giant fashion their clothing line included some pretty lovely sweaters and some pretty fetch tops however the business quickly died perhaps rightfully so mercy killing if anything number 70 except for these clothes of course Apple products are so popular in Japan that one guy started queuing for the iPhone 6 and whopping seven months before it's released seven months and I thought soft Brits were pros at queueing number 71 but it wasn't always that way Apple's name recognition and brand was so low in Japan when it first came out that when the first Mac's were brought over to the country the delivery men met them with refrigerated trucks assuming they were transporting fruit fair enough really they are called Apple so number 72 if you think that's bad before 2013 iPhones could not even be marketed properly in Brazil another company already sold a phone under the trademark iPhone a phone that as an additional insult ran on Android number 73 the iPod gets its name from the 2001 a Space Odyssey famous line open the pod bay doors Hal now I'm kind of annoyed that the iPhones voice is called Siri not how although actually a bit me is relieved because otherwise I'd be worried it's gonna kill me all the time number 74 the average salary at Apple HQ is a staggering 125 thousand dollars a year generous although Apple can afford it they do make 300 thousand dollars a minute after all number six that if Apple was a country its annual revenue would make it the 55th richest country in the world according to the Atlantic as in the web site the Atlantic that's bigger than Kenya Ecuador and Paraguay Paraguay number 76 the situation is so polarized that the nine highest-paid executives earned a total of 441 million dollars compensation in 2011 according to the Economic Policy Institute this is more than 95 thousand of the workers at the Foxconn Factory where Apple products among others are made get paid combined number 57 in 2016 the EU decided that the deal Apple had made with Ireland to pay less tax was a little bit less than legal they ordered the company to pay 14.5 million dollars in back taxes well Wow it had been the offices when that was announced mood-killer number 78 Apple transports all its products by air rather than shipping them by a boat or train or carrier pigeon this method is apparently much faster allowing products to reach stores quicker when needed number 79 the company runs its own internal business school - called Apple University its dean joel bird only used a wife for both Harvard and Yale that's a spiffing resume right there number 80 iTunes enjoyed a landmark 25 billion song to be downloaded in 2013 the lucky customer was Philip Luebke from Germany who won a $13,000 gift card for his trouble wonder what the song he downloads was number 81 I guess I just found it the song was called monkey drums by chase bouche no have never heard of it either number 82 in case you were worried about what other milestones that were the 25th million was less it snowed by Frank Sinatra and the 1 billion song to be downloaded on the iTunes Store was speed of sound by Coldplay let's go speed yes album number 83 Apple is getting into the energy business apparently their facilities in Oregon Nevada and California generate enough excess renewable energy the Apple Times to sell it on to his customers in the near future think of that your house be powered by people asking Siri advice on where to buy an energy plan the irony number 8 for hey speaking of Siri if you ask them the meaning of life they'll have many different answers one of which is 42 a reference that I make every single week on one on one that - The Hitchhiker's Guide to the galaxy number 85 Siri also replies with a Lego Batman flavored phrase if you address him as a computer - and you don't even have to do the voice in either number 86 also if you tell Siri you're drunk which I do often the Maradona problems just for recreation a button saying call me a taxi will automatically appear neat huh it doesn't automatically buy you Domino's though which is a shame because that and crying about what I did the night before is my hangover cure number 87 according to Time magazine each Apple store on average costs between eight point five to ten million dollars to actually open and that isn't even including the leaf number 88 the compound applesauce gets around 1 million visitors every day making an average per year of you guessed it 365 million people number 89 the iPhone made Apple 74 billion dollars in 2012 that's more money than the entirety of Microsoft made that year which was 73 billion dollars number 19 despite being one of the company's founders Steve Jobs only took $1 a year in salary which seems to be the hip new way of displaying your fabulously wealthy don't feel too bad for him though but he did okay for himself just as Apple stock which was I lead at one point eight four billion dollars number 91 Steve Jobs described taking LSD as one of the two or three most important things he ever did he was such an advocate of the psychedelic drug he even cranked it in the Pentagon admitting he'd taken the truck as many as 15 times maybe that's why he's using a toilet as a foot spa number 92 we've all been angry at the iPhone short battery life however at least that power comes cheap fully charging your iPhone every day for a year but only at 25 cents your electricity bill number 93 Apple will now never pay for product placement in films or TV shows however they will provide free iPhones and computers to any studios who want to feature their products on the screen Jeremy oh I knew I should have been in front of camera for this one so I could have got a free I watch number 94 this tactic has worked out rather well in the film Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol for example Apple products received eight total minutes of screen time that would have cost most advertisers 23 million dollars but Apple got it pretty much for free number 95 iPhones iPad and iPhone gift cards are not allowed to be used as part of any third party promotion it means it's technically illegal to have giveaways or competitions where people can win any of these products well I was going to give one away at the end of this video but now no don't want any jail time number 96 in 2012 a 17 year old boy in China made the news after he sawed his kidney in return for an iPad and an iPhone five people were later arrested on the target participating in the illegal organ trade did you get the phone no I I guess that can be important bachelor number 97 Mac versus PC or get a Mac was the humorous advertising campaign between 2006 and 2009 that starred Justin Long as Mac and John Hodgman as PC in it the two would enact situations as the two computers sawed off with the Mac being far more laid-back and cold and escaping most situations unscathed number 98 the UK version of this contains Peep Show comedy duo David Mitchell and Robert Webb black mirror creator Charlie Brooker called their inclusion weird because to quote him in Peep Show David Mitchell plays a repressed neurotic underdog and web pages selfish of regarding poseur so when you see the ads you think pcs are a bit rubbish yet ultimately loveable whereas Mac's are just smug preening tosses his wiseguys not mine if I'm a tosser them whoops number 99 the Japanese version of these ads instead contain the comedy duo the rammons no good the mic port of all of the company's first portable machine released in 1989 but it weighed 16 pounds it wasn't until the PowerBook 100 in 1991 which weighed less than 8 pounds that we finally had a portable computer the wooden Frank your bloody bat to carry around number 101 ah another weird thing that max can do for you is be your therapist if you open up terminal and type in Emacs press shift escape press X and type doctor your very own therapy session starts I'm not sure I would follow its advice though it certainly hasn't helped me in my pursuit of Jen Oh Jen not even a I will let me into your heart we'll find a way we always do we always do important alright so that was 101 facts
