16 years ago when I was making my television series Triumph of the Nerds, I interviewed Steve Jobs.

16年前(1995)我制作《书呆子的胜利》时采访了乔布斯

At the time of our interview,

接受釆访时

 

Steve was running NeXT, the niche computer company he founded after leaving Apple.

乔布斯正在经营他创办的NeXT公司

 

Little bit we know was within 18 months he would sell NeXT to Apple,

and 6 month later he'd be running the place.

The way things work in television we use only a part of that interview in the series.

当年的节目只用了一小段采访，

 

And for years we thought the interview was lost for forever because the master tape were missing while being shipped from London to US in the 1990s.

There are very few TV interviews with Steve Jobs and almost no good ones.

And so to honor an amazing man, here's that interview in its entirety.

为了向这位奇人致敬，我们几乎一刀未剪
