I just saw this article with computer quotes, and I found it to be quite hilarious.

“The Internet?  We are not interested in it.”
– Bill Gates, 1993

“Pessimists, we’re told, look at a glass containing 50% air and 50% water and see it as half empty.  Optimists, in contrast, see it as half full.  Engineers, of course, understand the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.”
– Bob Lewis

“It was a joke, okay?  If we thought it would actually be used, we wouldn’t have written it!”
– Mark Andreesen, speaking of the HTML tag BLINK

“Perl: The only language that looks the same before and after RSA encryption.”
– Keith Bostic

“Yes, we have a dress code. You have to dress.”
– Scott McNealy, co-founder of Sun Microsystems

And finally, since I’m working with UXP professionals:

“We have to stop optimizing for programmers and start optimizing for users.”
– Jeff Atwood
