steve jobs statue

from steve jobs posted in technology by pete_nice

In the third district of Budapest at Graphisoft Park, a statue of Steve Jobs was unveiled in December of 2011 (just two months after his death).

The statue, created by Hungarian sculptor Erno Toth, features a 6 1/2 foot bronze version of Jobs wearing jeans, turtleneck, round spectacles, and an outstretched hand that kind of looks like an eagle's talon.

Gabor Bojar, the founder of Graphisoft, commissioned the sculpture days after Job's death. Apple had offered support to the architectural software firm, lending Graphisoft cash and computers, since Jobs saw them at a German trade expo in 1984.

Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak were members of this club, and when Woz developed the first Apple computer board, they would sell them at the Homebrew meetings in April of 1976, giving them the confidence to further invest into Apple Computers.
