One of the more underrated made-for-TV movies in my opinion.

They represented Steve Jobs better than either of the two movies based on him.

I remember seeing it in tbe 90s and thought it was good, but after the second act of Jobs and Apple, the movie becomes even better.

I enjoyed it a lot.

Yep, because it definitely plays the whole "lesser guy wins" theme with how Gates stole a lot of the Mac's software and Jobs had to crawl back to Gates at his lowest... In the time sense, Apple crushed Microsoft.

Is it available? I've been wanting to watch it again. I remember Steve mocking a guy for perhaps never having been laid, plus sort of conducting an acid trip for employees.

100% agreed. Also, it's been said that Steve Jobs loved this movie's representation of him.

Need to look at the market caps, but yeah, Apple is currently a lot bigger and has been for some time. Ironic given Microsoft loaned them $150 million in the late 90's to keep them afloat.
