That's just like the two computer statements that I can paraphrase:

1. From the late 1950's, some guy from GE or the US Government said that he
could see the global market for computers at 5 or 6, tops 

2. From Kenneth Olson, founder/president of DEC: "There is no reason for
any individual to have a computer in their home."  (Ken Olson, President,
Digital Equipment, 1977)

Ahhh, how history repeats itself.....
