Learn about the far-reaching impact of Steve Jobs’ entrepreneurship and innovation on our daily lives,and how his patents and trademarks reveal the importance intellectual property plays in the global marketplace. On view are an Apple Macintosh computer, mouse, and keyboard; a NeXT monitor, keyboard, mouse, sound box, and microcomputer; and an Apple iPod.

Specific picture descriptions: Photos above with "i" icons next to the bracketed sequence numbers (e.g. "[1] ") are described as follows:
1. RIPJOB_120513_002.JPG: The Patents and Trademarks of Steve Jobs: Art and Technology that Changed the World This exhibit was developed by the United States Patent and Trademark Office and Invent Now, Inc.
2. RIPJOB_120513_010.JPG: Apple Macintosh, 1984: The Macintosh was the product of an Apple Computer team, lead by Steve Jobs from 1981 until product release in 1984. It had features that were new to home computers, including a mouse, overlapping windows, icons, and relatively powerful graphics. The Macintosh was a complete, ready-to-plug-in unit. (Previously, hobbyists often assembled home computers out of parts from several firms.) The case design, patented by Jobs and two colleagues, has a spare, clean look that Jobs favored.
3. RIPJOB_120513_018.JPG: iPod 15GB, about 2003: In 2001, Apple began to sell software called iTunes, which ran only on Apple computers. Songs downloaded from CDs could be uploaded to portable music players, dubbed iPods. The company soon distributed songs directly through its online iTunes store, and sold iPods like this one that were compatible with several brands of computer[s]. With others a co-inventors, Steve Jobs took out more than 80 patents relating to the iPod.
4. RIPJOB_120513_025.JPG: NeXT Workstation, 1992: Initial sales of the Macintosh were disappointing, and disagreements arose between Jobs and other Apple executives. He and five coworkers left Apple in 1985 to start a new firm that built the NeXT, a powerful workstation with graphical capabilities like those of the Macintosh. It went on sale in 1989. Jobs and several co-inventors took out patents for the graphical interface of the NeXT. Apple acquired these patents in 1996, when Jobs returned there.

2012 photos: Equipment this year: My mainstays were the Fuji S100fs, Nikon D7000, and the new Fuji X-S1. I also used an underwater Fuji XP50 and a Nikon D600. The first three cameras all broke this year and had to be repaired. Trips this year: three Civil War Trust conferences (Shepherdstown, WV, Richmond, VA, and Williamsburg, VA), a week-long family reunion cruise of the Caribbean, another week-long family reunion in the Wisconsin Dells (with lots of in-transit time in Ohio and Indiana), and my 7th consecutive San Diego Comic-Con trip (including side trips to Zion, Bryce, the Grand Canyon, etc). Ego strokes: I had a picture of Miss DC, Ashley Boalch, published in the Washington Post. I had a photograph of the George Segal San Francisco Holocaust memorial used as the cover of Quebec Francais (issue 165). Not being able to read French, I'm not entirely sure what the article is about but, hey! And I guess what could be considered to be a positive thing, my site is now established enough that spammers have noticed it and I had to block 17,000 file description postings for Viagra and whatever else.. Number of photos taken this year: just below 410,000.
