By 1997, Jobs was again ready to focus on business at Apple with the launch of the iMac. What should be mentioned at this juncture is that prior to the iMac, Apple was riding in unstable and rocky territory. The company was not doing as well under the management-of-the-day. In order to revamp the company and bring it back to its glory days, Steve Jobs returned to the helm, focusing on the brand, and ensuring the future of Apple. While his accomplishments in turning the company around are significant, one point that complements this feat, is the fact that he chose to take one dollar per year as his salary. The good of the company was more important to him.
