  That left one key vacancy 5 on the team: a person who could market the new product to universities.
  新团队还有一个关键的职位空缺:一个可以向高校营销新产品的人。
  The obvious candidate was Dan'l Lewin, who at Apple had organized a consortium of universities to buy Macintosh computers in bulk.

  卢因和乔布斯有着共同的兴趣:卢因的大学毕业论文对鲍勃·迪伦和魅力型领导力进行了研究,
  and Jobs knew something about both of those topics.
  而乔布斯对这两个话题都有所了解。
  Lewin's university consortium had been a godsend to the Macintosh group,
  卢因的高校联盟对麦金塔团队来说是个天赐良机。
  but he had become frustrated 7 after Jobs left
