Who cares who's captain after the wings have fallen off.

Computers shouldn't be unusable. You don't need to know how to work a telephone switch to make a phone call, or how to use the Hoover Dam to take a shower, or how to work a nuclear-power plant to turn on the lights.

Every time you turn on your new car, you're turning on 20 microprocessors. Every time you use an ATM, you're using a computer. Every time I use a settop box or game machine, I'm using a computer. The only computer you don't know how to work is your Microsoft computer, right?

I can't figure the stock market out. I think it's wacky. I have done well with a long-term strategy and will continue being a long-term investor.

Microsoft is now talking about the digital nervous system... I guess I would be nervous if my system was built on their technology too.

When Steve Ballmer calls me wacko, I consider that a compliment.

Technology has the shelf life of a banana.
