Stephen's+report

__ Computer Technician __

In the future, I would like to be a computer technician. If you are interested in computers, you have probably heard of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs. These two are the world's multi-billionare software creators. Bill Gates made the first personal computer. Steve Jobs made a Lisa and a Macintosh computer. Steve Jobs was the co-founder, chairman and CEO of Apple Inc. Bill Gates was Microsoft's chief executive officer, co-founder,and CEO of Microsoft Inc. Apple wasn't going to survive much longer and it was the main reason why Apple partnered with microsoft. The reason why I want to be a computer technician is because I've been given a great talent, the gift of being able to fix software. I can not only help others with their computer problems and make sure the computer works properly and so avoid any conundrums. Even though the new computer technology may look new and perfect, the truth is that the newer technology could possibly have newer flaws than older ones. It takes a long time to study how the flaw might occur or work and how to get rid of it. I think my talent in this area could deal with such conundrums. Maybe my salary would be twenty three thousand or more for each year. These are the reasons why I want my career to be a computer technician. Remember with great power comes great responsibility.
