Paul Jobs was then working at Spectra-Physics, a company in nearby Santa Clara that made lasers for electronics and medical products. As a machinist, he crafted the prototypes of products that the engineers were devising. His son was fascinated by the need for perfection. "Lasers require precision alignment," Jobs said. "The really sophisticated ones, for airborne applications or medical, had very precise features. They would tell my dad something like, 'This is what we want, and we want it out of one piece of metal so that the coefficients of expansion are all the same.' And he had to figure out how to do it." Most pieces had to be made from scratch, which meant that Paul had to create custom tools and dies. His son was impressed, but he rarely went to the machine shop. "It would have been fun if he had gotten to teach me how to use a mill and lathe. But unfortunately I never went, because I was more interested in electronics."
喬布斯的父親當時在光譜物理公司工作,該公司坐落在旁邊的圣克拉拉,為電子設備和醫(yī)療產(chǎn)品生產(chǎn)激光器件。作為一名機械師,他為工程師們設計的產(chǎn)品制作樣機。他的兒子被那種對完美的追求所深深吸引?!凹す鈨x器要求及其精準的調校,”喬布斯說,“真正尖端的激光儀器,比如飛機上使用的或者用于醫(yī)療的,都非常精密。工程師們會對爸爸說,‘這就是我們想要的,我們還想要用一整塊金屬板一體成型來保證膨脹系數(shù)的一致。’然后爸爸就要想辦法怎么實現(xiàn)。”大多數(shù)樣機都是從零開始制作的,這就意味著保羅?喬布斯必須定制各種工具和模具。他的兒子被此深深吸引,卻很少去車間看看?!耙撬芙涛矣勉姶埠蛙嚧驳脑?,一定會很有意思的,但遺憾的是,我從沒去過他的車間,因為我對電子的東西更感興趣?!?/div>
