“The most compelling reason for most people to buy a computer for the home will be to link it to a nationwide communications network. We’re just in the beginning stages of what will be a truly remarkable breakthrough for most people––as remarkable as the telephone.” [Playboy, Feb. 1, 1985]

They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.” [Stanford commencement speech, June 2005]
