Answer:

Introduction

Apple made history on August 2, 2018, when it became the first publicly traded U.S. business to have a market capitalisation of $1 trillion. 1 The business set another another record in August 2020 when it became the first American business to achieve a $2 trillion market cap.

Explanation:

During the 1980s

• Despite the hardware mostly remaining the same, the Apple II powered the company's revenue until the middle of the 1980s. The Apple III and Apple Lisa were attempts at improvements by Apple, but they were not successful commercially. Even though the Apple II was still in demand, Apple's business was struggling as the 1980s got underway.

• Apple made strides forward after the Macintosh's 1984 release. However, IBM had caught up over the years between the Apple II and the Macintosh. Apple's board fired Jobs in favour of John Sculley due to disappointing Macintosh sales and internal power battles (some sources say Jobs decided to leave).

The Macintosh Computer-

• The Macintosh, a personal computer with a built-in screen and mouse, was unveiled by Apple in 1984 and quickly became its most popular offering to date. The computer included a graphical user interface (GUI), the System 1 operating system (the first iteration of Mac OS), and a number of applications, such as the word processor MacWrite and the graphics editor MacPaint. According to The New York Times, the Macintosh marked the start of a "revolution in personal computing."
• Due to differences with Apple CEO John Scully, Jobs was fired from the business in 1985. He later founded NeXT Inc., a maker of computers and software that Apple ultimately bought in 1997.
• The Macintosh saw numerous revisions in the 1980s. The Macintosh Classic, Macintosh LC, and Macintosh IIsi were all new versions that the business unveiled in 1990. They were all more affordable and compact than the original machine. The company's first laptop, the PowerBook, was released by Apple a year later.

From the above discussion we can conclude that during the 1980s, the Macintosh Computer made Apple Computer Inc a leading computer company.
