That reminds me of a interesting quote from Thomas
Watson:
It all turned around with TJ junior who is the one that made IBM fly in the
computer world
Last week Control Data ... announced the 6600
system. I understand
that in the laboratory developing the system there are only 34
people including the janitor. Of these, 14 are engineers and 4 are
programmers ... Contrasting this modest effort with our vast
development activities, I fail to understand why we have lost our
industry leadership position by letting someone else offer the
world's most powerful computer.
