input into the design).
Well, according to Mr. Bill in _The Road Ahead_ (page 42...no I didn't
memorize the stupid book, I just happen to have it sitting here; I
haven't even read it yet), he "designed" the M100 with some cat named
Kazuhiko Nishi, who was like this Bill Gates of Japan. The idea was
pitched to Kyocera's president by Nishi on a plane ride. There's a grain
of truth in everything though.
