Out of history comes these two predictions;
1943: Thomas Watson of IBM fame predicted a wordwide demand of 5 computers.
1977: Ken Olsen of Digital Equipment stated "There is no reason anyone would want a computer in their home"
With those brilliant predictions in mind how many computers and smart devices do you have nowadays. Smart appliances and cars count too.
1smart phone, 1 Ipad, 2 laptops, 3 desktops, 1 smart Tv, 1 semi smart car. 0 smart appliances yet.
My wife will be first in line for a smart ice cream maker that goes to the store, buys the ingredients, makes ice cream and shows up at her bedside with a bowl. Geez come to think of it maybe I'll buy it cause that's exactly what I do now. Could she be replacing me?????
