This story
repets itself over and over again, though: one of the Watson's
saying there was a probably market for <single-digit> of computers; Ken
Olsen saying people wouldn't want computers in their homes; etc, etc.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that these were urban myths... Does
anyone have actual references in their contexts?
E.g. Watson was talking about the multi-megabuck 704/709/7094 etc, and I
think that Olsens's quote was about the DEC-System 10...
