Camera crews have arrived at Steve Jobs' childhood home in Los Altos to begin shooting the new movie based on Walter Isaacson's biography. The movie is written by Aaron Sorkin, directed by Danny Boyle, and stars Michael Fassbender as Steve Jobs and Seth Rogen as Steve Wozniak.
CNET was onsite to describe the scene as crews prepared to film in the garage where Jobs and Wozniak got started.
Cinderblock and wood shelves are pieced together along the walls. Roller skates, a Thermos, an old vacuum cleaner and 8-track player and stereo lay haphazardly about. An advertisement for a Braun electric coffee maker hangs on the wall, as does a poster featuring Bob Dylan holding a "Get Born" sign from a film clip featuring the song "Subterranean Homesick Blues." And the house itself has been painted a beige color with darker tan trim, contrasting with the formerly lighter exterior.
The Steve Jobs movie was originally to be produced by Sony Pictures; however, it was picked up by Universal Studio after Sony struggled to find someone to finance the film with Fassbender taking the lead.

Yea nobody cares about bill gates. Everybody cares about steve jobs because the media tells people to worship him. I mean dude got fired by his own company for being a pain in the rear. I mean i get it: the iphone was groundbreaking but c'mon, people gotta give love to bill gates. 80% of companies use windows. He does so much by donating billions to charities and third world countries yet he isnt nearly as revered as Steve. Why? What does steve jobs have over bill gates?
It depends how much people cared enough for whoever to know what they do, that's when a movie from true stories come out. If bill gates was just as memorable as Steve, he to would have a chance.
