In some parts of life, like mathematics and science, yeah, I was a genius. I would top all the top scores you could ever measure it by.

It's just not right that so many things don't work when they should. I don't think that will change for a long time.

I went and I started teaching computers to young kids, to fifth graders at first, later to sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth graders. I also started teaching teachers. And that was back in the days when we'd wire up the labs ourselves and crimp on the Ethernet connectors and then we would.

It would be nice to design a real briefcase - you open it up and it's your computer but it also stores your books.

The best things that capture your imagination are ones you hadn't thought of before and that aren't talked about in the news all the time.

I never got into Linux. I swear to God, it's only lack of time. I'm past the years of my life where I can really dig into something like running a Linux system. I'm very sympathetic to the whole idea; Linux people always think the way I want to think.

All the best people in life seem to like LINUX.
