It lost that distinction to HP about 3 or 4 years after I left, unfortunately, but when I left it was the largest printer company in the world.

只过了三四年惠普就追上来了，真可惜

Did you envision desktop publishing, was that a no-brainer?

你预见到桌面出版的前景吗，还是显而易见的?

You know… yes, but we also envisioned really the network office,

是的，我预见到了。但是我们同时还想推广网络办公

and so in January, 1995 when we had our annual meeting and introduced our new products, I made probably the largest marketing blunder of my career.

所以1995年发布新产品时，我犯了这辈子最大的营销错误

Bob: 1985. Steve: 1985, sorry. Made probably the largest marketing blunder in my career by announcing the Mackintosh Office instead of just desktop publishing.

Bob: 是1985年。Steve: 1985年，对不起。我们发布了Mackintosh Office办公系统，其中包括桌面出版

And we had desktop publishing as a major component of that, but we announced a bunch of other stuff as well, and I think we should just focus on desktop publishing at that time.

当时应该集中力量推桌面出版，而不是所有功能一拥而上。

Tell us your departure from Apple.

说说你离开苹果的情况

Oh it was very painful and I am not even sure if I want to talk about it. What can I say? I hired the wrong guy.

很痛苦，我都不太愿意聊这事。怎么说呢?我招错了人。

That was Sculley?

是指Sculley?

Yeah, and he destroyed something I spent 10 years working for.

是的，他毁了我十年的心血

Starting with me, but that wasn't the saddest part.

他逼我离职，但这还不是最糟糕的

I would have gladly left Apple if Apple had turned out like I wanted it to.
