'640K ought to be enough for anybody' *was* *definitely* said by Bill Gates. He said it at an early microcomputer trade show in Seattle in mid 1981. It is the Microsoft PR machine that has tried over the years to rewrite history and pretend that Gates never made this asinine comment. —This unsigned comment is by 216.150.131.207 (talk • contribs) at 15:22, 21 November 2007 (UTC).

The comment wasn't asinine. It is very easy to look back and say that it was stupid, but at the time, it was a very reasonable statement. Can you think of any reason for personal computers to have terabytes of RAM? Probably not. But maybe in 15 years, there will be a reason, and most PCs will have terabytes of RAM. The only reason you probably wouldn't make the same mistake right now and say, 'no one will ever need terabytes of memory' is because you've already seen how predicting the future worked out for Bill Gates and have learned from his mistake. —This unsigned comment is by 2620:0:102f:1100:d267:e5ff:fef1:a0bc (talk • contribs) at 01:58, 13 July 2012 (UTC).
The reason Gates and Microsoft have tried to downplay this quote (and yes, he did say it) is not because it is or is not asinine, but because it proves that Gates is not, and has never been, the 'visionary' he wants the world to see him as. 173.68.125.114 22:06, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

I'm inclined to agree with the above comment, since we know Bill also said 'we will never make a 32-bit operating system'. Given that things were moving from 8 bit to 16 bit at the time, the eventual transition of desktop CPUs to 32-bit and beyond should have been just as obvious. But unless you can find a reliable citation, I don't think it should be on the page.. -- zcat —This unsigned comment is by 203.173.163.127 (talk • contribs) at 00:09, 29 July 2008 (UTC).

The '640 kB is enough' is a myth attributed to Gates. The blame for this should actually be placed at IBM's feet, because the 640 kB limit was an architectural limitation imposed by IBM, who decided to load drivers in high mem starting at those addresses, in effect imposing a hardware ceiling on the memory available for OS and apps. —This unsigned comment is by 124.148.147.118 (talk • contribs) at 19:12, 7 April 2011 (UTC).

In Wired, 32-bit per se, in not mentioned, but Gates mentions indirectly here with 16-bit and 640K. Should the sourced (from here at some point?) 'never make a 32-bit operating system' be mentioned as misattributed[2] or not? Comp.arch (talk) 11:55, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Removed what might be a translation[edit]

Someone had posted the following statement which I have removed from the article.

  • 'Kommt ein Mann in den Steg Computer und sagt: 'Ich hätte gerne den fettesten, gröbsten Prozessor den Sie haben!' Sagt der Verkäufer: 'Tut mir leid, die Lorenz ist gerade in der Therapie'

This may or may not be a quote of Bill Gates translated into German. Statements originating in German or any other language are welcome here, preferably accompanied by an English translation, but translations of statements into German, if that is what this is, must await the development of a German language Wikiquote. There has been growing interest expressed in creating such Wikiquotes for other languages, and this statement perhaps would belong there. ~ Kalki 12:19, 13 Jul 2004 (UTC)

In 1995, while living in Washington State and promoting that the Internet is the future ... Bill Gates was publicly denouncing the web as just a fad and costing many companies financial difficulties in the Northwest, including, but not limited to, Zipee Corp, the Plaintiff in a lawsuit with the United States Postal Service on the domain postal-service.com in which the case has become the foundation of Internet law around the world !

I think 1993 is too early. I distinctly recall Gates' statement that Microsoft was not interested in 'the internet phenomenon', or otherwise downplayed it's significance, about 6 months prior to releasing IE (1995) as a competitor to Netscape. This was obviously a calculated position to take in public prior to releasing IE. I'd place it late 1994, early 1995. —This unsigned comment is by 69.211.1.92 (talk • contribs) at 01:41, 29 November 2006 (UTC).

1995 quote: No reason to think this is genuine. In August Gates wrote a memo (introduced as evidence in the antitrust case) titled 'The Internet Tidal Wave' that very clearly recognized the internet's significance. Windows 95, released in August, included Internet Explorer 1.0 which had been licensed earlier (and before that Microsoft had tried but failed to license the Booklink browser).
1993 quote: Often appears alongside established phony Gates quotations like '640kB should be enough' and 'Be nice to nerds.' However, it is not impossible nor would it be terribly surprising if he said it. 1993 was the year that NCSA Mosaic was released, and before that the Internet wasn't much to look at for an end-user.
Anything Gates said about the internet at that time should be considered in the context that Microsoft was doing active development on networking in the early 1990s but not necessarily internet networking. Microsoft's awakening to the Internet as not just an interesting technology but a profitable one (which matters to Gates) is documented in Renegades of the Empire and Breaking Windows. w:User:Gazpacho 07:12, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

Steg computer driver download

this one says circa 1984 'around the time of the introduction of the macintosh', but it still isn't very specific. Most places give seperate dates which isn't too impressing, and the German wikiquote says a 1984 mac conference as well but no source either (http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Gates). A slashdot comment says [3] 1984 as well. So, that's what I found after checking all of the googles for

'the Macintosh, of all the machines I've ever seen, is the only one that meets that standard'

and

'And the Macintosh, of all the machines I've ever seen, is the only one that meets that standard'

If this were a real quote, I would be expecting someone like forbes or time magazine... hopefully someone's search goes better then mine :). w:User:RN—This unsigned comment is by 67.185.132.50 (talk • contribs) at 17:55, 26 August 2006 (UTC).

Sourcing[edit]

Gates is a sufficiently public figure, has left a big enough paper trail, and has inspired enough bogus quotes, that I think it's reasonable to insist on very specific citations for anything that gets added here.

It violates the 'no original research' policy to suggest that
a) All collections of humorous material, even those from Oxford University press, are unreliable; please provide a source if you wish to assert that;
b) Because it is your personal opinion that Bill Gates said something, therefore he could not have done so; please provide a source if you wish to assert that.

Dumpster diving quote[edit]

The dumpster diving quote (the one that starts 'the best way to prepare') has a longer quote, which includes valuable extra information, in this slashdot comment. Could somebody confirm that this quote is true and then include it? --212.130.183.202 10:24, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

The dumpster diving quote is from the book 'Programmers at Work: Interviews With 19 Programmers Who Shaped the Computer Industry', published by Microsoft Press. I've seen enough different people claim to have actually got the book and found the quote that I don't believe they could all be making it up, EG the above posting on slashdot or this;
http://danbricklin.com/log/2004_03_11.htm#paw
This occurrence is particularly interesting because Dan Bricklin was one of the 19 programmers interviewed in the book and in a scan of the (hardback) cover, his photo appears on the top left.
If you really want to be sure, you could just buy the book yourself from Amazon. There are four copies available right now. —This unsigned comment is by 203.109.205.86 (talk • contribs) at 02:26, 11 March 2008 (UTC).

Factoring large primes?[edit]

One of the Gates quotes I see most often is the (silly, no doubt) mistake regarding factoring. From Wikipedia's entry on The Road Ahead:

'The obvious mathematical breakthrough would be development of an easy way to factor large prime numbers.' (p.265)

Is this quote omitted because it came from a multi-author book? If so, I can understand the reasoning: who knows who wrote it? If not, surely this should be included. 207.172.209.70 03:18, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

What about 'The Road Ahead's dismissal of the internet?[edit]

Not putting it directly on the page (yet)

He released a book in November 1995 called 'The Road Ahead', which largely dismissed the internet (mentioning it briefly) and the web, seeing it as a mere stepping stone towards the 'real' 'information superhighway'. All the while trying to use Windows 95 to push 'The Microsoft Network' ('MSN'), at the time a proprietary online service to compete with the likes of Compuserve and AOL.

Gates realized that the internet was gaining traction, so one month after it hit the stores MS's strategies were allegedly realigned, and a 'Completely Revised and Up-to-Date' edition of 'The Road Ahead' came out in October 1996.

I don't think Bill Gates is that stupid. I sincerely doubt the quote is real. There's literally millions and millions of counter-examples to that. Let's name a few, just to be sure: Nikola Tesla, Ignaz Semmelweis (died broke and insane because his contemporaries kept refusing to listen to his 'insane' theory that washing hands in hospitals would save lives), Vincent van Gogh, William Blake, Gutenberg. And that's really not even including the kind of people who weren't geniuses who died poor because of economic conditions or otherwise. In short - Bill Gates = not a moron. Person who would say that quote = moron. Bloomingdedalus (talk) 15:41, 29 December 2013 (UTC)
I wouldn't say that they're not at fault for dying poor. If Semmelweis wanted to make money, he could have. Tesla was brilliant, but his focus was on progress, not money.
