"640K ought to be enough for anybody." -Bill Gates, 1981 "The number of transistors per square inch on integrated circuits will double approximately every 18 months for the foreseeable future." -Moore's Law (as restated by Gordon Moore in the 1980's)
I have created a modified version of this theory that I call Strickler's corollary: "The amount of memory required for a computer workstation doubles every two years." -Geoff Strickler, 2003 By applying Strickler's corollary to Bill Gates' statement, I arrive at the statement "1.25GB ought to be enough for anybody." -Geoff Strickler, 2003 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackman" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Apple2list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 21, 2004 03:21 PM Subject: Re: Computers in school (was: Apple IIc +(color monitor?)) > "640KB ought to be enough for anybody." > > Jackman. > -- Apple2list is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and... / Buy books, CDs, videos, and more from Amazon.com \ / <http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/redirect-home/lowendmac> \ Support Low End Mac <http://lowendmac.com/lists/support.html> Apple2list info: <http://lowendmac.com/lists/apple2.html> --> AOL users, remove "mailto:"; Send list messages to: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For digest mode, email: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subscription questions: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/apple2list%40mail.maclaunch.com/> Using a Mac?
