established as a successful business-
ready platform because of Visicalc,
Apple was not content. The Apple III was
designed to take on the business
environment. The Apple III was released
on May 19, 1980.

1997–2001: Apple's
comeback
Return of Steve Jobs
On July 9, 1997, Gil Amelio was ousted
as CEO of Apple by the board of
directors. Jobs stepped in as the interim
CEO to begin a critical restructuring of
the company's product line. He would
eventually become CEO and served in
that position until August 2011. On
August 24, 2011 Steve Jobs resigned his
position as chief executive officer of
Apple before his long battle with
pancreatic cancer took his life on
October 5, 2011.[58]

Intel transition
In a keynote address on June 6, 2005,
Steve Jobs officially announced that
Apple would begin producing Intel-based
Macintosh computers beginning in
2006.[79] Jobs confirmed rumors that the
company had secretly been producing
versions of its current operating system
Mac OS X for both PowerPC and Intel
processors over the past 5 years, and
that the transition to Intel processor
systems would last until the end of 2007.
Rumors of cross-platform compatibility
had been spurred by the fact that Mac OS
X is based on OpenStep, an operating
system that was available for many
platforms. In fact, Apple's own Darwin,
the open source underpinnings of Mac
OS X, was also available for Intel's x86
architecture.[80][81][82]

camera, along with three new apps that
utilize these new features: Camera,
FaceTime, and Photo Booth.
