There are subjects that – for fear of argument – people prefer not to discuss. One of those questions is...PC or Apple? Ever since he received an Apple IIe when he was a toddler, Jason has been firmly entrenched in the pro-Apple camp. Jason is now 18 and has owned four Apple computers and continues to argue passionately about their superiority to PCs.

When presented the opportunity to select a wish, Jason chose to meet the co-founder and CEO of Apple, Steve Jobs.

Although Jason was ecstatic about meeting one of the leaders in the computer revolution, he did not anticipate a prolonged meeting – after all, how could a man as busy and influential as Steve have time to spend with a young man he’s never met.

Steve even passed on a phone call and a conference call so not to interrupt his meeting with his new friend. They talked in detail about a wide variety of subjects, especially computers, and Steve even allowed Jason to look at some amazing prototypes.

More importantly, the two connected in a way that can only be attributed to the magic of a wish. Jason and Steve are now friends.

Jason has been an avid fan of Apple computers for nearly 15 years, and thanks to the simple, exquisite phenomenon known as a wish, he was able to meet the one person in the world he wanted to meet more than any other.

  • Having worked for Steve Jobs several times I don't find this surprising at all. He is truly a heartfelt and passionate man. While he can be abrasive at times, his love of life and desire to make a difference is something we can all learn from. So too can we learn from Jason and the other wish kids. One must take one's life and run with it. Even in the darkness there is always a way to light. Good luck Jason!
