It's a rather long list, but breathtaking in many of its predictions.
I've always felt that Steve Jobs was the visionary, Bill Gates the toady,
and these quotes fulfill that. Jobs could always see 3 pieces ahead on the
chess board, Gates was always 1 piece behind. For example, he was predicting
"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." This was in 1985.
