It’s an Iphone on the wrist...

I seem to remember a quote by a computer pioneering legend back in the 1970s about everybody will have an IBM 360(370?) on their wrist.

Can't remember the guy. Must have been a hardware guy that stayed in the corporate world (as opposed to Cray, Amdahl, etc.)

We’ve very much surpassed that.

My phone could send plenty of spaceships into orbit.
