每一个人都有自己小小的童年，然而，人们都是无法选择自己的出生，无法预知自己的童年。快乐或悲伤，似乎都是命中注定。苹果之父乔布斯又有怎样的童年呢？

The most important technology for the region's growth was, of course, the semiconductor. William Shockley, who had been one of the inventors of the transistor at Bell Labs in New Jersey, moved out to Mountain View and, in 1956, started a company to build transistors using silicon rather than the more expensive germanium that was then commonly used. But Shockley became increasingly erratic and abandoned his silicon transistor project, which led eight of his engineers, most notably Robert Noyce and Gordon Moore, to break away to form Fairchild Semiconductor. That company grew to 12,000 employees, but it fragmented in 1968, when Noyce lost a power struggle to become CEO. He took Gordon Moore and founded a company that they called Integrated Electronics Corporation, which they soon smartly abbreviated to Intel. Their third employee was Andrew Grove, who would later grow the company in the 1980s by shifting its focus from memory chips to microprocessors. Within a few years there would be more than fifty companies in the area making semiconductors.
在硅谷的发展中，最重要的一项技术显然是半导体。在新泽西的贝尔实验室期间与人共同发明了晶体管的威廉•肖克利，也搬到了山景城，他在1956年创办了一家公司，用硅代替当时普遍使用的也较为昂贵的锗来制造晶体管。但随后肖克利变得越来越乖僻，他放弃了硅晶体管项目，这也导致了他麾下的8名工程师——最著名的罗伯特•诺伊斯和戈登•摩尔——离他而去并创办了仙童半导体公司。该公司发展到了12000人的规模，但是1968年，诺伊斯在一场争夺CEO宝座的权力斗争中失败后，公司分裂了。诺伊斯带走了戈登•摩尔，创办了集成电路公司，他们巧妙地将公司简称为“英特尔”。他们的第三名员工是安德鲁•格鲁夫，他在20世纪80年代通过将业务重心从存储芯片转移到微处理器上而使公司发展壮大。仅仅几年的时间，这一地区就出现了超过50家生产半导体的公司。
