In an episode of your new series "American Genius" which will air tonight, National Geographic will once again tell the parallel stories of Apple and Microsoft, from the perspective of the co-founders Steve Jobs and bill Gates.
The episode's hotsite alone is already very cool and worth a visit. It traces, in the form of an interactive infographic on a timeline, the battle for control of personal computing from 1974 to 1999.
National Geographic counted on the collaboration of Steve Wozniak (co-founder of Apple), Walter Isaacson (Steve Jobs' printing block) and others for the construction of his documentary. At a press conference according to the Business Insider , Woz cited that the big difference from Jobs to Gates is that the first was a great visionary, while the second knew how to get things done and generate revenue right away.
Check here some videos of teaser of the documentary.
