Steve Jobs and Bill Gates are both known for their unique roles in science and technology. The major difference between the two of them is in their inventions.

Steve Jobs is the founder of Apple. Some of the Apple products include the iPad, iPod, and iPhone. Steve Jobs was born in 1955 but was given up for adoption by his parent. He was a smart student but had no life direction so he dropped out of college. He left the Apple Company to launch Pixar Animal Studio in 1985. He returned to Apple after a decade and died in 2011 from cancer.

Bill Gates was born in October 1955 in Washington. He enrolled at Harvard University in 1973 and dropped out in 1975. The reason for the drop out was to pursue his Microsoft business with his partner Paul Allen. The Microsoft Company started in 1975 but the company was not going well. Microsoft exploded after the development of software for IBM. Lastly, Bill Gates is one of the richest and most successful businessmen around the world.
