I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly.

我跟 David Packard 与 Bob Noyce 见面，为自己把事情弄得如此糟糕而道歉。

Its roots stretched back to 1938, when David Packard and his new wife moved into a house in Palo Alto that had a shed where his friend Bill Hewlett was soon ensconced.

这场发展的根基还要回溯到1938年，当时戴维·帕卡德和他的新婚妻子搬进了帕洛奥图的一座公寓，很快他的朋友比尔·休利特也在这座公寓的一个小屋里安顿了下来。

But his more important goal, he said, was to do what Hewlett and his friend David Packard had done, which was create a company that was so imbued with innovative creativity that it would outlive them.

但他还有一个更重要的目标，他说，就是像休利特和戴维·帕卡德—样，建立一家充满了革命性创造力的公司，而且这家公司要比惠普更能经受岁月长河的涤荡。
