Article meets DYK requirements and is free from close paraphrasing. A QPQ has been done. Both hooks are cited inline and verified; although the Steve Jobs angle is tempting, I think ALT1 is the better hook here due to the more interesting hardware and also because the first hook seems a bit weak due to the reliance on Steve as opposed to being focused on the company itself.
