About this movie

On the threshold of the Digital Age, visionary geniuses Bill Gates and Steve Jobs launch the revolutionary race between rivals Microsoft and Apple Computers. From nights of dorm-room tinkering to days of boardroom scheming, their fierce and often humorous battle to rule the fledgling computer industry creates a new technology that literally changes the world. Based on the book Fire in the Valley by Paul Freiberger and Michael Swaine.

I love this movie and I believe it's a favorite among geeks and nerds. I like the realistic portrayal of the contrasting persona of Steve Jobs and Bill Gates. I would really like to see this for buy on Google Play

This one does a great job of telling the parrelling creation of Microsoft and Apple and how the modern personal computer was created. The movie is done in such a way that it is funny at times and has strong drama at other times.

This movie is much better than the ones that Ashton Kutcher was in. This is actually more factual, and shows how Apple and Microsoft came to be who they are. I just want to know why we can't buy it?
