Could this have been true? Seeing far is a mystery Con­sider the fol­low­ing famous pre­dic­tions about computing. I think there is a world mar­ket for maybe five com­put­ers. (Chair­man of IBM, 1943) Com­put­ers in the future may weigh no more than 1.5 tons. (Pop­u­lar Mechan­ics, 1949) There is no rea­son any­one would want a com­puter in their home. (Pres­i­dent, DEC, 1977) The last of these was made only three years before IBM pro­duced the first per­sonal com­puter.
