每一个人都有自己小小的童年，然而，人们都是无法选择自己的出生，无法预知自己的童年。快乐或悲伤，似乎都是命中注定。苹果之父乔布斯又有怎样的童年呢？

The exponential growth of this industry was correlated with the phenomenon famously discovered by Moore, who in 1965 drew a graph of the speed of integrated circuits, based on the number of transistors that could be placed on a chip, and showed that it doubled about every two years, a trajectory that could be expected to continue. This was reaffirmed in 1971, when Intel was able to etch a complete central processing unit onto one chip, the Intel 4004, which was dubbed a "microprocessor." Moore's Law has held generally true to this day, and its reliable projection of performance to price allowed two generations of young entrepreneurs, including Steve Jobs and Bill Gates, to create cost projections for their forward-leaning products.
The chip industry gave the region a new name when Don Hoefler, a columnist for the weekly trade paper Electronic News, began a series in January 1971 entitled "Silicon Valley USA." The 40-mile Santa Clara Valley, which stretches from South San Francisco through Palo Alto to San Jose, has as its commercial backbone El Camino Real, the royal road that once connected California's 21 mission churches and is now a bustling avenue that connects companies and startups accounting for a third of the venture capital investment in the United States each year. "Growing up, I got inspired by the history of the place," Jobs said. "That made me want to be a part of it."
半导体产业的爆炸式发展与摩尔发现的著名现象有关，他在1965年绘制的一张图标显示，集成电路每个芯片所能容纳的晶体管数量大约每年就会翻一番，性能也会提升一倍，而且这一趋势还会继续。这一发现在1971年得到了再一次证实，当时英特尔公司成功地将一个完整的中央处理器蚀刻到了一块芯片上——制成了英特尔4004——他们称之为“微处理器”。摩尔定律直至今日依然基本准确，它对产品性价比的可靠预测让包括史蒂夫•乔布斯和比尔•盖茨在内的两代年轻企业家可以对自己的未来产品做出成本推测。
芯片产业赋予该地区一个全新的名字。从1971年1月起，每周发行的专业类包纸《电子新闻》的专栏作家唐•赫夫勒，开始了一组系列报道，标题为“美国硅谷”。这一绵延40英里的圣克拉拉谷，从南旧金山穿过帕罗奥图，一直延伸到圣何塞，贯穿其中的是该地区的商业主干道“国王大道”，这条道路曾经连接着加州的21所教会，而现在，这条繁忙的道路所连接的企业和新兴公司每年吸引着美金1/3的风险投资。“成长于此，我收到了这里独特历史的启发，”乔布斯说，“这让我很想成为其中的一份子。”
