My favourite quote: "If somebody in 1999 had said 'Build me a massive data storage system that would be available to a hundred million users around the world, would be capable of terabytes of data 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, and robust to attack from armed people bringing down attacks,' you would say 'Give me a billion bucks and ten years.' You wouldn't say, give me Shawn Fanning in a dorm room, building peer-to-peer (p-to-p) file sharing systems."
